MIT Massachusetts Institute of Technology:
Located in Cambridge, just across the Charles River from Boston, the current MIT campus covers a 168-acre parcel of land.
Over the years, some of the world's best-known architects have contributed buildings across the site, ranging in styles including neoclassical, modernist, brutalist, and deconstructivist.
MIT Architecture is shaped by MIT’s architecture. From the street — and particularly from our front door on Massachusetts Avenue — this architecture is imposing, classical, and apparently immutable. Yet the physical and intellectual innovations that MIT has produced — scientific frameworks and inventions, social and humanistic insights, new methods of thinking and making — course around the world and have remade it several times over. The resulting tension—between speed and heaviness, between lightness and gravity—is most beautifully captured in the ephemeral and enduring culture of hacking MIT’s own architecture: the illicit adornment of domes and towers with fire engines, Daleks, Lunar Landers, subway cars and Star Wars droids. While superficially vandalizing the Institute, they also serve as the best representation of its essential, improbable identity.

Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT):
For over a century, the Department of Economics at MIT has played a leading role in economics education, research, and public service. In 1941, MIT inaugurated the Ph.D. program that is renowned worldwide. MIT’s approach to graduate training in economics has been widely emulated at other leading institutions.
The MIT Economics Department today is a vibrant collection of faculty and students. The Department’s faculty have received numerous awards, including the Nobel Prize. Many are Fellows of the National Academy of Sciences, the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and the Econometric Society. Numerous faculty members have served in various elected offices of the American Economic Association and the Econometric Society.
The Department offers one of the most rigorous undergraduate economics educations of any U.S. college or university, and its classes attract a large undergraduate student enrollment. Many undergraduate majors, as well as students from other departments at MIT, participated in research projects supervised by the economics faculty. Many are funded by the Institute’s Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program (UROP) and departmental UROP funds donated by generous alumni.
The Department is consistently ranked as a top graduate training institution. Each year the MIT Ph.D. program enrolls twenty to twenty-four candidates, selected from approximately eight hundred applicants. During the 2016-2017 academic year, there were 128 graduate students enrolled in the Department’s Ph.D. program. Student dissertation topics span a wide range of issues in microeconomics and macroeconomics and advance the frontiers of economic theory, data analysis, and econometric methodology. An important development of the last two decades has been a growing internationalization in the demand for graduate economics training. Currently about half of the admitted students have undergraduate degrees from American universities, while the rest have degrees from elsewhere in the developed and developing world.

Why MIT Sloan?

-
At the intersection of business and technology, we're exploring the future of work. We're launching companies that kick start local economies in the developing world. We're retooling systems to make health care work better and to engage people around the world in addressing climate change.
