伦斯勒理工大学（Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute），简称RPI，创立于1824年，位于纽约州首府奥尔巴尼附近的特洛伊，全美顶尖理工大学（英语系国家历史上第一所理工科大学），美国东部高等学府，2018年全美综排第42名。

毕达学子被录取的是RPI的M.S. in Quantitative Finance & Risk Analytics (QFRA)（数量金融与风险分析），开设在Lally商学院下。从3个角度来分析一下这个项目：

1、就业。QFRA被列入最新出炉的QuantNet北美金工排名Top 30，这份排名非常注重项目毕业生的就业能力（20%同行评估20% + 55%就业成功率），能入围该榜单，说明QFRA在就业方便的口碑是相对好的。

就业去向（来自官网）：Succeed with a career as a financial analyst, credit risk specialist, financial controller, quantitative risk analyst, private equity analyst, modeling expert, finance portfolio manager, commercial and investment banking consultant, among others.
