The Rensselaer Medal is a merit-based scholarship established in 1916, awarded by RPI to a high-school junior who has distinguished themselves in mathematics and science. It is intended to recognise outstanding academic achievement and to encourage future work in STEM disciplines.
I was nominated for the Rensselaer Medal after maintaining top grades in math and science throughout my junior year, leading my school’s robotics team, and demonstrating a strong commitment to STEM innovation. The award’s emphasis on excellence in mathematics and science reflects the same curiosity and dedication that drive my academic pursuits.
"Receiving the Rensselaer Medal affirmed my commitment to STEM, particularly my interests in mechanical engineering and biomechatronics. With this recognition, I am motivated to pursue further interdisciplinary projects that merge engineering with my desire to improve the lives of others."
