Rose–Hulman Institute of Technology (abbreviated RHIT), formerly Rose Polytechnic Institute, is a small private college specializing in teaching engineering, mathematics, and science. RHIT is highly regarded for its undergraduate engineering program, which US News and World Reports ranked in 2011 as #1 in the United States of schools where a doctorate degree is not offered, a position it has held since 2000. Its 295-acre (0.5 sq mi; 119.4 ha) campus is located in Terre Haute, Indiana. The curricula at RHIT concentrate on engineering and the natural sciences. The school's primary focus is undergraduate education, though there is a small graduate program for master's degree students. There are no doctoral programs. In 2005, Rose-Hulman had 161 faculty members, 99% of whom held a Ph.D. The current student-to-faculty ratio is 12:1. Admission to the institute remains competitive due to its self-selecting admissions class and applicant sharing with MIT, Purdue, Notre Dame, and other top universities. In 2010, 559 students enrolled out of over 3,800 applicants. The school currently operates on three academic quarters plus an optional summer session.
