A flexible option for professionals to take courses at MIT

June 18, 2011

With science and technology evolving at an unprecedented pace, The MIT Professional Education - Advanced Study Program offers professionals from around the world in industry and government the opportunity to:

Advance your knowledge in the latest technologies and cutting edge research
Learn from world renowned faculty
Tailor Programs to meet individual or company needs
Participate on a full or part-time basis for one or more semesters
Earn MIT credit and a certificate of completion

"At my career stage, you are not looking for a degree, but you want to work in a specific area of interest. The Advanced Study Program is really open so you could explore your interests. Since I am sponsored by my company, they are interested in defining the area I am working in, which was easier in an open program than a degree program." –Oscar Howell, ASP Fellow

Learn how MIT and the Advanced Study Program can advance your career and impact your company's success.
