RPI Portal is a convenient way to navigate to RPI-related websites and resources. It's a shortcut to every online component of RPI's departments and programs. You can use it as a launchpad for tools and pages you visit frequently, and you can even make it the home page in your web browser.
In late August 2009, we decided that we wanted an easy, centralized, and consistent way to find things on RPI's website. This turned into a massive project in information architecture, followed by prototyping, graphic design, coding, and usability testing.
RPI Portal is currently in a beta production phase, and it is under continuous development. We plan to add additional tools and features, including searching, customization, optimized support for mobile devices, and special opportunities for community involvement.
We'd love to hear your feedback; you can send us an email from our feedback page.
