About SoE

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology has had a profound influence on the world through technological leadership and research innovations since its founding in 1861. MIT is one of the world's preeminent research universities: renowned for rigorous academic programs in science, technology, and other areas of scholarship; cutting-edge research; a diverse campus community; and a longstanding commitment to working with the public and private sectors to bring new knowledge to bear on the world's complex challenges.

Currently, the seven departments and two divisions of MIT's School of Engineering encompass a community of many of the world's brightest minds and inventive thinkers—about 42% of MIT's undergraduates with declared majors, about 45% of MIT graduate students, and over one-third of the entire faculty of MIT.
