The MIT International Science and Technology Initiatives—better known as MISTI—connects MIT students and faculty with research and innovation around the world. MIT's primary international program, MISTI is a pioneer in applied international studies—a distinctively MIT concept.

For students

Working closely with a network of premier corporations, universities and research institutes, MISTI matches hundreds of MIT students annually with all-expenses-paid internships and research abroad.

For faculty

MISTI Global Seed Funds provide funding for MIT faculty to jump-start international projects and encourage student involvement in faculty-led international research.
