Membership in SDM’s learning community begins with the January session and lasts a lifetime. SDM alumni can participate in a wide range of activities, including:

• Bi-monthly web seminars presented by Engineering Systems Division faculty, graduate students and alums. Recent topics include product family and platform strategy development, supply chain coordination and influenza vaccination, RFID history and current state, Dell’s demand/supply balancing act, and how outsiders on the inside create change in organizations
• Annual two-day conference focused specifically on topics of leadership, innovation and systems thinking, planned and hosted by SDM alumni. SDM conferences have been held annually since 2001.
• Monthly e-mail of upcoming events and the latest SDM/ESD news
• Access, through SDM’s Virtual Community, to contact information for SDM alumni, faculty, students and staff, as well as to all SDM theses

SDM alumni can also participate in MIT’s Institute-wide alumni activities, as well as those of the MIT Sloan School of Management.
