The 1901–02 RPI men's ice hockey season was the inaugural season of play for the program.
Season
RPI played its first intercollegiate game against Williams College at a rink just north of Troy, New York.
Note: Rensselaer's athletic teams were unofficially known as 'Cherry and White' until 1921 when the Engineers moniker debuted for the men's basketball team.{{cite web|title=Symbols of the Institute |url=https://www.rpi.edu/dept/library/html/Archives/gallery/symbols/mascot.html |work=Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute |accessdate=January 9, 2020}}
