Design + Making
The world of design and making at MIT is vast, interdisciplinary, and expanding. Whether your medium of choice is wood, code, or bacteria, you can find an ELO that lets you create something truly spectacular.
At MIT, design and making ELOs take the form of project-based classes, research opportunities, entrepreneurship and innovation, individual projects (with mentor feedback, of course!), and more! Not sure where to start? Staff in any of the programs listed on this page can direct you to funding, training, mentorship, and opportunities that suit your needs and interests.
