About this title

Synopsis

1. Richly illustrated book with images, photographs and pictures from the MIT museum and archives, many of which have not been seen before

The centennial anniversary of MIT Sloan presents an ideal time to reflect on a history of extraordinary achievement. MIT Sloan: Celebrating Our Past, Inventing The Future revisits people and programs, breakthroughs and discoveries, with an eye fixed on the next 100 years. It provides a definitive account of the legacy of Course XV and the powerful influence it has had on shaping the future.

Over the past century, MIT Sloan faculty, students, alumni, and staff have made significant and lasting contributions to the field of management and management education. We pay tribute to those individuals and groups whose ideas and work changed thought, theory, and practice. Taking a fresh look at management education at the Institute and the evolution of MIT Sloan, the text—compiled by a range of experts—adopts a thematic rather than chronological approach, supplemented by an eclectic mix of personal stories and memories from alumni.
