15.990 Projects for change: A collaborative management learning lab
This full-semester, 9-unit course is open to MBA students, as well as other MIT graduate students with the instructor's permission.
This class puts your projects front and center. Our goal is to help you learn the most you can from your projects. In Spring 08, the focus will be on clusters of projects that tackle common themes in three general areas:
- global health delivery, with possible linkages to projects connected to GHD at Harvard University
- startups that have emerged from MIT classes, projects, and research
- international development projects linked to MIT's DLab
The class design is as follows:
First, you need a project. We have some of these, or you may be able to bring your own if they fit with the class themes.
Have an idea that you'd like to work on? Work with us to sort it out.
Would you like to join an existing effort? Please talk to us over IAP to figure out how you can help define and shape one of the many possibilities we already have.
Busy during IAP? Let us know of your interest and join the class in the spring when you'll be able to sign up for a project.
Students can sign up for an IAP workshop in which they work with the instructor and others to scope and shape a project for this class
