About WPI Foisie School of Business
WPI—the nation’s third oldest private technological university—began offering courses in management during the 1960s as part of a joint effort of several existing academic departments. The Department of Management was established in 1976, and in 2010 it officially became known as the School of Business. In 2014, it was renamed the Robert A. Foisie School of Business in recognition of a $40 million gift to the university, the largest gift in the university’s 149-year history, from Robert A. Foisie’56, a self-made innovator and entrepreneur.
