WORCESTER, Massachusetts — A total of 2,393 undergraduate students at Worcester Polytechnic Institute were named to the university’s fall 2024 dean’s list. The criteria for the WPI dean’s list differ from that of most other universities as WPI does not compute a grade point average. Instead, WPI students are named to the Dean’s List based on the amount of work completed at the A level in courses and hands-on projects.
“WPI’s academic programs are rigorous and require a level of independence beyond what is required in traditional courses. WPI students work on real-world, open-ended problems on campus and in communities around the globe. Far from being simple academic exercises, the projects students complete have genuine and lasting impacts in our partner communities,” said Provost Andrew Sears. “Some of this nation’s best and brightest students come to WPI to study engineering, science, business, and the humanities. Those named to the Dean’s List have excelled in all of their work, and we are exceptionally proud of these outstanding students.”
The following local students were named to the dean’s list for fall 2024:
Daniel Brower of Carmel, Class of 2025, majoring in interactive media and game development;
Timothy Schuck of Glenburn, Class of 2028, majoring in biomedical engineering; and
Evan Smith of Brewer, Class of 2026, majoring in computer science and electrical and computer engineering.
