15.S17 SSIM: Defense and Dual-Use Ventures Lab
Defense and Dual-Use Ventures Lab (DDuV-Lab) is MIT Sloan's first Action Learning lab focused on the defense, security, and resilience (DSR) ecosystem. Student teams engage with real dual-use and defense tech startups, government innovation organizations, and venture investors to tackle semester-long strategic, technical, and operational challenges. The course builds on MIT's deep tradition of venture and lab classes, applying that model to one of the most consequential and fast-moving domains in technology today. This course is open to MIT students across all programs, as well as cross-registrants from Harvard and Wellesley.
