MIT Office of Digital Learning

About Us

The mission of Open Learning is to transform teaching and learning at MIT and around the globe through the innovative use of digital technologies. As the engineering group, our role is the “digital technologies” part of the mission statement. We build and maintain the applications and services that the department relies on to provide educational opportunities within MIT and to learners around the world.

How We Work

We are an agile team without being dogmatic about it. We believe that every engineer should take ownership and pride in their work. You can read more in our public handbook
