Policy Lab Grants
Increasing the impact of MIT research on public policy
The MIT Policy Lab supports all research disciplines, from computer science to linguistics, and engages at all levels of public policy, from city councils to the United Nations. Policy Lab support for qualifying faculty members includes (a) mentorship and advice from Policy Lab affiliated faculty and the Managing Director, (b) staff support, (c) logistical assistance, (d) formal communication training, and (e) modest grants to MIT researchers. In combination, this support helps MIT researchers to develop mutually beneficial, ongoing relationships with members of the policy community that complement and enhance, rather than distract from, scholarly research.
