A Winchester man was named to the Dean's List for the spring semester at Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI), according to a press statement.

Lucien LeMenager, of Winchester, a senior majoring in interactive media and game development, was named to the Dean's List at WPI, according to the statement.

A total of 1,340 undergraduate students achieved the criteria required for WPI's spring 2013 Dean's List, reads the statement. The criteria for the WPI Dean's List differ from that of most other universities as WPI does not compute a grade point average (GPA), but rather defines the Dean's List by the amount of work completed at the A level in courses and projects, the statement adds.

"WPI's academic programs are remarkably rigorous, so being named to the Dean's List is a testament to hard work, a sharp mind, and a commitment to excellence," said Provost Eric Overström in the statement. "Some of this nation's best and brightest students come to WPI to learn subjects ranging from engineering to science to business and the humanities, and through our innovative project-based curriculum they conduct professional-level research and solve important problems all over the world. Those named to the Dean's List have excelled at facing such demanding challenges, and we are exceptionally proud of these outstanding students."
