Cross-cutting
Increasing connections and facilitating collaborations in computing across departments and disciplines in education and research at MIT.
The Schwarzman College of Computing stands in a unique position, both supporting and drawing strength from MIT’s five schools: the School of Engineering; the School of Science; the School of Humanities, Arts, and Social Sciences; the MIT Sloan School of Management; and the School of Architecture and Planning. In concert with departments and schools, the college is facilitating novel educational pilots and emergent areas of computing education, research, and practice.
