History

The MIT Mining, Oil and Gas Club was founded by a multidisciplinary group of students at MIT as a natural resources systems thinking organization. It was officially recognized by the MIT Association of Student Activities (ASA) on 05/01/2012 after approving the first constitution.

Mission and Vision

We aim to catalyze interest in the mining and oil & gas industries within the MIT Community, and effectively foster linkages between industry and academia. Our vision is to be the main platform/hub for collaboration and networking among all relevant stakeholders for the Mining, Oil and Gas Industry (developers, researchers, industry, NGOs and academia).
