Education

Professor and students review experiment under a microscope.

At MITEI, we offer education programs and opportunities that prepare MIT undergraduate and graduate students and global online learners to tackle complex challenges encountered along the energy transition pathway.

By supporting classroom instruction, hands-on learning opportunities, research at the undergraduate and graduate student level, graduate students, and clubs that advocate for energy, climate, and sustainability goals, we help MIT students explore all aspects of the energy transition.
