Undergraduate Education Focus Group for Belonging
In Fall 2023, the MIT Sloan Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI), in collaboration with the MIT Sloan Undergraduate Program Office, conducted focus groups with Course 15 undergraduates to explore their sense of belonging at MIT and MIT Sloan. This report highlights the key findings and outlines initiatives informed by these discussions, aimed at fostering a stronger sense of belonging and community for all students.
