关于我们
Following MIT's motto, "mens et manus," or "mind and hand," MIT Sloan Action Learning is a teaching method where students take what they learn in the classroom and apply it to a real business challenge. ? Credit-bearing courses rather than internships ? Small group teams of three to six students ? Real host companies The result? At the end of the term, teams present deliverables that their hosts can implement immediately. Each year, we manage around 20 academic courses that include more than 250 experiential learning projects, involving almost 900 students and more than 200 external host organizations.

These 5 goals make MIT Sloan Action Learning labs a critical part of management education: Apply classroom theories to real-world challenges? “This experience has equipped me with valuable hands-on experience and new skills critical for my professional development. It’s taught me how to approach complex problems with a strategic mindset, prioritize robustness in analytics solutions, and effectively collaborate with a diverse team. Being able to showcase this experience to potential employers will highlight my practical experience in problem-solving and teamworking.” – Jan Girgott, MBAn ’24, Analytics Lab Structure and solve problems “I’d never really done this type of project, where you have a problem, scope it, and see it through from beginning to end. I had always pictured it as massive and overwhelming. The experience of realizing it was achievable and going through the steps in class with faculty mentors, was really instrumental.” – Sarah Schmid, MBA ’25, Enterprise Management Lab Collaborate effectively in teams “That’s one of the things about the entire experience of MIT Sloan Action Learning and the Executive MBA. You get passionate people who want to solve big problems from disparate backgrounds. Bring them together and you can invent the future.” – Max Wilson, EMBA ’22, Sustainable Business Lab Learn to lead through ambiguous and unstructured situations “My primary goal was to gain insights into go-to-market strategy and entrepreneurship. This course exceeded my expectations, teaching me vital skills and boosting my confidence in tackling unfamiliar challenges.” – Gabriella Jennett, MBA ’24, Global Entrepreneurship Lab Reflect for personal and professional growth “This experience has equipped me with the skills, knowledge, and confidence to tackle complex business problems and make meaningful contributions in my future endeavors. I am immensely grateful for the opportunity and look forward to applying the lessons learned to drive positive change in the world of business and beyond.” – Phoon Hee Yau, SFMBA ’24, Proseminar in Corporate Finance, Investment Banking, and Private Equity ?MIT Sloan School of Management Admissions, MIT Executive MBA Program, MIT Sloan CDO, MIT Initiative on the Digital Economy, MIT Sloan Sustainability Initiative

I recently had the opportunity to work on a research project with Xinxin (Grace) Wang, CFA, FRM and MSCI Inc. through the MIT Finance Lab 2024. The research focused on the low-carbon strategies of energy and utilities companies and how these strategies impact their financial performance. It was an immersive, fast-paced introduction to the intriguing field of Climate and ESG analytics. It was an incredible experience that definitely served as a solid foundation for future endeavor in the area!

I’m delighted to announce the completion of the tenth #msci #mitsloan Fin Lab project. It’s astonishing to think that a decade has flown by since I began sponsoring students in this action-learning, graduate-level course. The class offers students the opportunity to fully immerse themselves in challenging finance research projects that bridge the gaps between theory and practice. This year, students Pincha R., Alexander Genoe, Stella Kotzabasakis, and Jinghan C. dove into climate and financial data to explore low carbon transition signals and performance metrics in energy and utility companies. Their teamwork, effective communication, and sharp analytical skills have been absolutely remarkable. Reflecting on a decade of mentoring driven and talented graduate students, I am deeply honored by the trust these brilliant and ambitious minds have placed in me as their mentor. Witnessing the students’ intellect and determination unfold, guiding them as they navigate the intricate bridge between theory and real-world challenges, and then watching their careers blossom—some joining me as colleagues, others leading the charge in the financial industry—has filled me with an immense sense of pride and humility. It’s been an incredible privilege to be a part of their journey, to contribute to their development, and to learn from their fresh perspectives and innovative approaches. #payitforward #climate #energy #utility #lowcarbonsolutions #lowcarboneconomy Enclosed is a photo from the final presentation, featuring this year’s students alongside my colleagues, Alexander Schober and Chris Cote.

?? Exciting day at MIT Sloan School of Management—Pitch Day for Generative AI Lab! Today, companies pitched their cutting-edge #generativeAI projects to #MITSloan students as we officially launch Generative AI Lab (GenAI-Lab)—a new, hands-on MIT Sloan Action Learning course sponsored by the MIT Initiative on the Digital Economy. With faculty, John Horton (MIT IDE Research Group Lead), Tim Valicenti, and Michiel Bakker, this course pairs student teams with organizations tackling real-world #AIchallenges. From developing #AI prototypes to crafting AI strategy roadmaps, students will apply generative AI to #business transformation across industries like #biopharma, #finance, #media, and more. Looking forward to seeing how these student-led AI projects take shape and push the boundaries of innovation!

This fall, the MIT Sloan Action Learning Office worked with G-Lab faculty Simon Johnson and Michellana Jester to pilot an MIT Sloan staff G-Lab project team. The goal was for six staff members from various MIT Sloan departments – Christina Beck (Sloan Educational Services), Jackie Dunn (Student Life), Sebastien Delisle (Action Learning), Jean Lyon (MBA), Katie (Callahan) McGrath (MFin), and?Suzanne Styffe?(EMBA & SFMBA) – to participate in the course and fully immerse themselves in the student experience.?The team was paired with Asia School of Business (ASB), whose project focused on a go-to-market strategy for their Agile Continuous Education program and lateral entry into their degree programs.? ? Throughout the fall and IAP, the team lived MIT’s motto of “mens et manus”, or “mind and hand.” They attended G-Lab classes, met with ASB staff and MIT staff affiliated with ASB, conducted research on education in Malaysia and Southeast Asia, and ramped up their knowledge on launching new products/programs – something many of them had never done before! In January they traveled to the heart of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, for a one-week onsite with ASB. Here they tested their background knowledge and theories by meeting with ASB colleagues in person, observing and evaluating the school’s launch of its new program.? ? “The G-Lab staff pilot was an incredible opportunity to collaborate on a crucial and timely project with a cross-departmental team. Sharing ideas with ASB colleagues facing similar challenges and bringing fresh insights back to?our?teams?was invaluable.?We are?immensely grateful for the time, space, and support to develop and strengthen professional skills beyond our?daily work. After completing an Action Learning lab, we now understand firsthand the importance of experiential learning to the MIT Sloan experience, better equipping us to understand and support our students.” – Staff Team (MIT Sloan School of Management Admissions, MIT Sloan Fellows MBA Program, MIT Executive MBA Program
