About PREFACE

Each summer approximately 60 high school juniors interested in pursuing a career in the engineering and technological professions come to Rensselaer for an intensive two-week program called PREFACE.

The students come from a National applicant pool of underrepresented groups traveling from as far away as Puerto Rico.

 

The Manufacturing Experience

The faculty and staff within the Manufacturing Network at Rensselaer help these students jump in and get started on real engineering projects.
