Thinking in German.
MIT-Germany workshops are intense, short-term programs dedicated to specific challenges. They provide an opportunity to tackle authentic case-studies written by German companies and give those who do not yet meet program requirements a vehicle for cross-cultural exploration. Students who are eligible for internships and study programs are also welcome to participate.
