About the MIT Applied Cooperation Initiative
We are a small but mighty team dedicated to helping MIT students develop as dynamic leaders equipped to collaborate with others to solve the world’s most pressing problems.
Here, leadership is not a title or a person. It’s a process. We begin with self-awareness, then combine science-based frameworks, personalized coaching, and practical applications to develop leaders.
