Channel | updated February 28, 2013

MIT understands that diversity spans the whole array of human characteristics that differentiate and shape us, including, but certainly not limited to, race, gender, culture, sexual orientation, disability, socioeconomic background, age, religion, and language. For MIT’s students to contribute to future research areas and lead in global communities, we must prepare them to step outside their own worldviews, to appreciate other people’s life experiences and to engage their perspectives.
