Our Mission

Institute Advancement will enhance Rensselaer’s reputation and promote a significantly elevated quality and scale of life-long relationships to move constituents to extraordinary levels of support for Rensselaer’s strategic goals and priorities.

Institute Advancement plans, coordinates, and implements fundraising and relationship building programs with Rensselaer students, alumni, parents, friends, corporations, and foundations. Private gifts allow the University to fund programs, scholarships, fellowships, professorships, research, campus renovations, and new facilities.

Guided by the comprehensive strategy mapped out in The Rensselaer Plan, we have launched Renaissance at Rensselaer: The Campaign for Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. The campaign sets a bold and ambitious goal - $1.4 billion - to shape the future of Rensselaer.

When you give to Rensselaer, you further the cause of higher education and become part of the Institute’s effort to change the world. You join a group of individuals who truly enjoy being part of Rensselaer’s family of supporters. Depending on the amount or designation of your gift, you can earn membership in special recognition clubs and other types of donor organizations.
