Intercultural Engagement (i.e.)
We provide support, advocacy, and education to our diverse undergraduate and graduate student populations at MIT.
Our Mission
We build community by providing a myriad of educational and social opportunities for students and over 70 cultural and identity-based student organizations.
We also provide a physical SPXCE (W31-110; pronounced space) that encourages learning about personal identity while valuing and respecting others. SPXCE is a place for ongoing learning, growth, and innovation; a place where healthy conversations about belonging are not only encouraged, but celebrated.

Signature Programs
The mission of MC^2 is to create space to engage in thoughtful dialogue about identity, culture, wellbeing, and belonging. Workshops are led by MIT faculty and staff and are designed to not only teach you skills, but how to use those skills in discourse with peers, friends, colleagues and more. This day-long conference offers both team-building activities and a thought-provoking day of individual and group learning, reflection, and action-planning.
