The Office of Multicultural Programs provides a safe space for students to develop connections and broaden their scope. We exist to help students be successful, while providing advocacy, support services, trainings, workshops, leadership development and culturally based programs. We provide students with opportunities to engage in meaningful dialogue and activities that will assist them in becoming change agents at MIT and beyond.
Formed in September 2011, the Office of Multicultural Programs, or OMP, provides a safe space for students to develop and broaden their cultural connections. OMP is the newest branch of the Student Activities Office (SAO). SAO hosts other groups that support diversity, including LGBT@MIT and Women@MIT.
