CTPID
The Center for Technology, Policy, and Industrial Development (CTPID)
is building productive partnerships between academia, government,
and industry to support global economic growth and to advance policies
that preserve the environment and benefit society at large.
CTPID's mission is to develop new knowledge, advanced technological
strategies, and innovative partnerships that address global industrial
and policy issues and to provide an enriched environment for MIT
faculty and students to pursue their intellectual interests.
Partnerships for the Future
CTPID research focuses on contemporary industrial problems—such
as how to build safe, affordable, and environmentally friendly automobiles—that
span social, natural, and technological interests.
Current programs, often jointly supported by several corporations,
address industrial issues in the aerospace, automotive, business
and environment, materials systems, mobility, telecommunications,
and technology and law sectors. New programs examine particular
issues facing a single global corporation.
Creating New Knowledge
Applying MIT's intellectual competencies to real world dilemmas
produces a rich learning experience for students involved in CTPID
research programs and for those enrolled in the associated master's
and doctoral programs.
The combination of interdisciplinary academic resources and partnerships
with both regulatory bodies and entrepreneurial enterprises defines
CTPID's role as a home for advanced research with practical applications.
