Research Partners
Over the last 175 years, RPI alumni have been instrumental originators of technologies, products, and events that have changed our world: the Apollo Project, e-mail (including using the @ symbol), the first pocket calculator, the Reach toothbrush, baking powder, TV, the microprocessor, and the Brooklyn Bridge, to name a few. The NYS Polymer Center is no exception to that tradition and is certainly a major participant. Just take a look at the industrial and governmental entities that have partnered with us in world-changing research.
