MIT China Development Initiative

Founded in 2007, MIT China Development Initiative is MIT's premier organization for promoting China-US relations. Our events are focused on fostering international leadership in business, technology, and politics, as well as cross-cultural understanding through educational collabartion. Every year we host the annual IMUSE (Initiating Mutual Understanding Through Student Exchange) conference over IAP, where we invite delegates from MIT, Harvard, and Wellesley, in addition to students from Peking and Tsinghua University, two of the most prestigious universities in China. We have hosted 26 conferences and impacted 1300+ students to date.
