MIT Sloan Global Programs - Academics in Action
Number of global locations GP interacts with

GP's model is bi-directional; we operate offices and programming across the globe, and convene and educate on our exceptional campus. Our "action academics" approach to advancing and harnessing MIT Sloan evidence-based research helps ensure that ideas are made to matter.
