Why I love MIT

I love working at MIT because of the diversity of the staff and students that reflect our community.

As a historical student of MIT who studied the Graduate Certificate in Cross-Cultural Supervision and now lecturing this paper, the advantages to studying at MIT are endless with MIT graduates in great demand in government and non-government sectors of our community.
