Discover MIT!

We are makers. We are thinkers. We are explorers. In all that we do. The MIT community is driven by a shared purpose to make a better world through education, research, and innovation. We are fun and quirky, inventive and artistic, obsessed with numbers, and welcoming to talented people regardless of where they come from.

Only at MIT

  1. 🚀 Three alumni graduate from NASA astronaut training. They’re now eligible for spaceflight assignments and encourage MIT students to apply for the next astronaut class!

  2. In 2.679 (Electronics for Mechanical Systems II), mechanical engineering students imagine something they want to build, learn about electronic principles, and how to apply them to create mechanical systems through all stages of design, fabrication, and assembly.

Open your mind to the infinite possibilities of MIT...what will you discover?
