Think. Act. Reflect. (Repeat.)

MIT’s motto, mens et manus, translates from Latin to mind and hand. With intention, MIT’s founders were promoting, above all, that education was for practical application. At MIT Sloan, we seek to apply knowledge and skill in a way that benefits the world. 

Simply put, it's not enough to sit in an ivory tower and think about stuff all day—you have to go out in the world and make use of it.

Experiential learning is a centerpiece of the MIT Sloan Fellows experience. We integrate hands-on learning opportunities throughout the curriculum. Through Action Learning labs, the MIT Independent Activities Period, and numerous opportunities to collaborate with MIT research centers, you practice these management skills over and over again.
