ESD Philosophy: Engineering and Management plus Social Science

MIT’s System Design and Management program resides within the MIT Engineering Systems Division (ESD), The Division aims to solve complex engineering systems problems by integrating approaches based on engineering, management, and social sciences—using new framing and modeling methodologies. ESD seeks to facilitate the beneficial application of engineering systems principles and properties by expanding the set of problems addressed by engineers, and to position its graduates as leaders in tackling society’s challenges.
