Rochester Institute of Technology

RIT’s Packaging Science program was first established in 1972.  It is an interdisciplinary degree that leads to either a bachelors or masters of science.  The packaging science major prepares students for employment in areas such as package development, sales, purchasing, structural design, production, research, and marketing.  One of only a handful in the nation to offer the program, the discipline provides students exposure to laboratory experience and real life problem solving.  Embedded into the program is the required full-time co-op within a company.  This allows students to develop their professional skills, expand their real world experience, and most importantly broadens their industry contacts.
