Community Values

The Department of Political Science shares the values articulated in MIT’s Values Statement, including striving for the highest standards of integrity and excellence, championing the open sharing of information and ideas, and striving to make our community a humane and welcoming place where people from a diverse range of backgrounds can grow and thrive. Because we study the great challenges facing societies around the globe, we are keenly aware of the need to include a wide array of backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives in our curriculum, scholarship, and community.
