Rensselaer graduates founded Texas Instruments, the Wilshire 5000 Index, and Garmin. They invented sunscreen, the micro- processor, email, the television, the digital camera, and the video chip you use in your computers today. They built and/or designed most of the major metropolitan New York bridges. And, they have entertained the world with the creation of the Ferris wheel, the technology behind Slumdog Millionaire, Academy Award-winning computer graphics in Spiderman-3, and the wildly popular video game Guitar Hero.
