Why research? To gain experience.
Getting hands-on experience in your major or in an area of interest can be an invaluable means for determining your direction within a field and can help you identify areas that you may wish to focus on in the future as you are developing your career.
Research is a deeply ingrained part of the MIT culture. Research exploration can help you grow and learn as a scientist, engineer, doctor, lawyer, humanist, artist, or whatever your dream may be.
