Welcome to the working space for MIT Sloan Practicing Management

Our new course, 15.990, Practicing Management, to start 30 October 2006.

MIT has always been all about learning by doing. In 1860, its founders announced that "the most earnest co-operation of intelligent culture with industrial pursuits" would be the new Institute's mission.

Today MIT Sloanis ready to redefine management education. By charting new learning architectures, focusing on action and real-world practice, and inventing new ways to collaborate, we are helping our students to learn by innovating. Not only is such experience valuable because students apply what they have learned in the classroom, but also because by taking action, making things happen, and creating new solutions to problems, they develop as managers, change agents, and leaders.

What is the Practicing Management approach to education? Students prepare, act, and reflect on their experience, learning what it means to work with and through others to get things done. MIT students have always set out to change the world. With Practicing Management, MIT Sloan students start changing the world while they're here.
