International Programs

We share the Institute’s mission to advance knowledge and educate adult learners in engineering, science, and technology to best serve the world. As we continue to expand our global presence and commitment to educating professionals around the world, we celebrate recent offerings that allowed us to connect with industry leaders, academics, and alumni in Bogota, Milan, Rome, and Santiago de Chile.

Short Programs

Join MIT faculty in advancing your knowledge and career by taking a short course. Registration for our 64th summer season is still open, but June courses will be closing soon. There are ten new courses, most of which include laboratory exercises and/or group work: you can build a radar, program a robot, develop a game prototype, design novel ideas for viewing and engagement around Social TV, explore strategies for effective negotiation in scientific and technical fields, use modeling to test new materials, or learn to think like a designer to create phenomenal products or services.
