A new study from RPI and NASA reveals that a radically different telescope design could accelerate the search for potentially habitable worlds beyond our solar system.  

Researchers at RPI’s schools of science and engineering are exploring new ways to manipulate matter with light to unlock a new generation of computer chips, photovoltaic cells and other advanced materials.

Professor Steven L. Tait, Ph.D., Chair of the Department of Chemistry, Herman T. Briscoe Professor of Chemistry, and Associate Director of the Electron Microscopy Center at Indiana University (IU), has been appointed Dean of RPI’s School of Science following a nationwide search.
