Over the last several years, MIT's exploration of energy issues has broadened and deepened to include many different departments and media. From business to biology classes, the study of solar energy, sustainablity, and energy in general has begun saturating coursework and classroom discussions. It is featured in news office articles, videos, broadcast symposia, and OpenCourseWare classes. Take a look at the sections below to see a sampling of what MIT students and faculty have been working on.
