Build for Ukraine 🛠️🇺🇦 2.0

Who can participate?

This class is open to everyone. We will have in-person class meetings on MIT campus and a remote Zoom option.

There are two main ways to be involved:

You likely want to be involved as a Participant if

• you are an undergraduate or graduate student (though this is not a requirement)
• you have something like 15+ hours per week available for this class
• participants will be primarily attached to a specific project team and may have any level of expertise
• for MIT undergraduates, this class is offered as EC.S01, a 6-unit P/D/F course
• for MIT graduate students, this class is offered as EC.S11, a 6-unit course with standard A-F grading

Participant registration here (this leads to a Google Form that you should fill out – MIT IAP registration formally opens on December 1st)

You likely want to be involved as a Mentor if

• you have specific subject-matter expertise in one of our project tracks (see below)
• you have limited time (<10 hours a week) available for this class
• mentors’ contact information will be provided to teams to request help

Mentor registration here

Alternatively, if you want to just attend the lectures, please also fill out the registration participant registration and use the “just attending lectures” option so that we know you’ll be there, and so that you can get the Zoom link if you are attending remotely.

Challenge Tracks

Challenge problems from the following areas have been co-developed with practitioners (NGOs, start-ups, etc.) in the field. Student teams will work directly with experts and user groups from Ukraine, the United States, and other locations.
