The Computer Science & Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) is MIT’s largest research lab with over 100 researchers from 5 schools and 11 different departments. CSAIL has played a key role in the computer revolution and developments such as time-sharing, massive parallel computers, public key encryption, mass commercialization of robots, and much of the technology underlying the ARPANet, Internet and the World Wide Web. CSAIL’s focus is developing the architecture and innovative applications for tomorrow’s information technology. Research yields long-term improvements in how people live and work.
CSAIL’s Alliance Program (CAP) is a gateway into the lab for Industry and Governmental Institutions seeking a closer connection to the work, researchers and students of CSAIL. The program provides organizations with a proactive and comprehensive approach to developing strong connections with all CSAIL has to offer. Leading organizations come to CSAIL to learn about our research, to recruit talented graduate students, and to explore collaborations with our researchers. Through this program, we are able to better provide our members with access to our latest thinking and our deep pool of exceptional human and informational resources.
CSAIL has a long history of working closely with industry. Several of CSAIL's researchers and students have launched new companies with the innovative work being done here at CSAIL. Through research monitoring, joint research projects, workshops, conferences, visiting scientist programs and research reviews, CSAIL’s partners gain access to an extraordinary source of strategic intelligence on advanced technology that impacts business opportunities.
The CSAIL Alliance Program members have unprecedented access to:(*) cutting-edge research and emerging disruptive technologies (*) dialogue with leading researchers and student innovators(*) the CSAIL community through lectures, research publications, workshops, networking events, recruiting events, and CSAIL only activities.
CSAIL’s Alliance Program (CAP) offers organizations a unique opportunity to connect with MIT faculty, students, and researchers working at the forefront of computer science and artificial intelligence research. Members of the CSAIL Alliance Program are given unparalleled access to new technologies and ideas as they move from laboratory to marketplace.
The program has 2 levels: Affiliate and Partner.
