Academics
Approximately 40% of undergraduates and 17% of graduate students at MIT are enrolled in computing programs within the Schwarzman College of Computing. More still augment or compliment their studies with subjects in computing and data science and classes that blend computational thinking with their chosen discipline. The College includes a breadth of academic offerings — from a traditional degree in Computer Science to a blended major in Computation and Cognition to a minor in Statistics and Data Science.
All undergraduates apply through MIT Admissions. For graduate study, individuals apply to the department or program under which they want to register. Application instructions can be found on each program's website as well as on the MIT Graduate Admissions website.Academic Units
