Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute Athletics

Rensselaer’s current athletic fields include five illuminated for practice after dark and one with seating for 5,200. The Ned Harkness Field and Track, a synthetic turf field and track, was opened in 1994, while the East Campus Athletic Village celebrated its grand opening in October of 2009.

The ’87 Gymnasium contains two general-purpose gymnasiums, a swimming pool, five four-wall combination handball and squash courts, an indoor track, and a wrestling room.

The Rensselaer Alumni Sports and Recreation Center (AS+RC) houses the Robison Gymnasium, which has an indoor track; a physiotherapy room; basketball, and tennis courts on a resilient surface; and locker facilities.

The Robison Pool has eight lanes for competitive swimming as well as three-meter and one-meter diving boards.
