The fields of architecture, city planning, media, design, real estate, and art are first and foremost dedicated to improving the human condition and quality of life for all people. This credo applies in all the varied communities in which we are engaged, including our own here at MIT. We value each member of our community—students, faculty, postdocs, staff, and visitors—as human beings, with all our wonderful differences. These differences in culture, life experience, and opinion fuel creative ideas and actions, which are the core of our School’s educational mission.

We have therefore taken steps over the past decade to create a diverse and inclusive community within the School and its various departments, centers, and laboratories. 

Here you will find resources to help you navigate the Institute and take advantage of all that MIT has to offer. You will also find links to support, services, and programs that enhance your work life.
