Rensselaer faculty and students are attracting
the attention of the national press:
The
South China Morning Post carried an editorial
by Denis Simon, dean of Rensselaer's Lally School of Management.
The U.S.-China Security Review Commission
is missing a golden opportunity to harness China's emerging
brainpower, says Simon. "Simply engaging China is
not enough. The U.S. must propose marriage."
Business
Week featured the breakthrough nanotechnology
work of Pulickel Ajayan, a professor of materials science
and engineering at Rensselaer, in its "Developments
to Watch."
Pulickel Ajayan has discovered a molecular-scale
welding method that may be the first step in creating
ultra-strong materials or tiny chip circuitry.

is the only woman in the division. She ranks seventh among
