My RPI Experience
by Andrea MileoI enjoyed my time at RPI in Troy, NY and Hartford, CT. My undergraduate degree was Management-MIS & Finance and was achieved at the Troy, NY campus from 2000-2004. My Masters degree is IT- MIS from the Hartford campus from 2007-2010 part time while working. Both experiences were memorable and rewarding. I enjoyed being apart of the RPI community even before we started school, starting with the First year experience to visiting campus early, I enjoyed all the opportunities. I was a part of the Women’s mentor program, Residence Life, Tour Guides, Judicial board, helped with the career fair, was a teacher assistant, a mentor, a tutor, and in honor society to name a few. I enjoyed meeting fellow students, networking and planning for my future. Campus offered so many opportunities and allowed me to even participate in the co-op program with Hamilton Sundstrand (apart of United Technologies family). The experiences I had and the friends I made, from students and professors , shaped my career. I went on to work in the United Technologies family for a total of about 13 years. I received my Masters degree while working and achieved many work certifications to enhance my positions. My experiences in different United Technology companies within Information Technology shaped me and guided me to my current position at SAP Americas. I am thankful to the RPI community for their network, opportunities and experiences. I continue to encourage future students to join and learn how to change the world. Thank you RPI for 8 years and the educational background I needed to be analytical and technical in my career!
