Graduates from WPI, the nation’s third oldest technological university, have an average starting salary of $69,219.
Students come here expecting the WPI education to lead to a good living as scientists and engineers or to succeed in business.
What they have found is so much more—they are more sophisticated, well rounded, and prepared for whatever the world throws at them.
Here, you don’t just learn—you do. Everything about WPI is designed to stimulate your curiosity, challenge you, and support you so that you can imagine anything and innovate everything—from academics, student life, and the arts, to projects on campus and across the world.
WPI’s project-based academic program continuously puts every student to work as part of teams, challenging them to solve important problems. Yes, they gain technical skills, but, just as critically, they learn to achieve collaboratively, think creatively, and better communicate their ideas. This is what distinguishes WPI.

Colleges that Create Futures
Are you curious and creative? Do you like to work in teams to get things done while making your own decisions and setting your own course? Do you love math and science, but feel just as passionate about subjects such as music, art, or movies? WPI could be the right choice for your college education.
Whether you are just beginning your college search, making your final enrollment decision, or somewhere in between, the WPI admissions team is here to help you along the way. Join us on campus for one of our regular information sessions and campus tours, a fall open house, or one of our spring events just for admitted students. It’s a great opportunity to see for yourself what makes WPI a unique place.
