Interdisciplinary Science Rankings, reports Rosa Ellis. Provost Cynthia Barnhart notes that the original design of MIT’s campus was “one large, interconnected building, and the intention was to provide our faculty and our students – all of them – opportunities to bump into one another, to share knowledge and collaborate. Then over the years, other structures, like labs and centers, institutes and, most recently, a college, have been created to enable and facilitate interactions across disciplines.”</p> </span> </div> <div class="page--itm--views--list-item--link-to-source"> <span class="page--itm--views--list-item--link-to-source--icon"><svg class="icon--document" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="16.922" height="20.627" viewBox="0 0 16.922 20.627"> <g id="document" transform="translate(-665.38 -362.29)"> <path id="Path_2594" data-name="Path 2594" d="M680.222,366.77h-8.88a1.483,1.483,0,0,0-1.482,1.482v14.806a1.483,1.483,0,0,0,1.482,1.482h11.1a1.483,1.483,0,0,0,1.482-1.482V370.474h-3.7v-3.7Z" transform="translate(-2.124 -2.124)" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" stroke-miterlimit="10" stroke-width="1"/> <path id="Path_2595" data-name="Path 2595" d="M692.16,366.77v3.717h3.712Z" transform="translate(-14.075 -2.124)" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" stroke-miterlimit="10" stroke-width="1"/> <path id="Path_2596" data-name="Path 2596" d="M676.28,362.79h-8.912a1.486,1.486,0,0,0-1.488,1.482v14.806a1.486,1.486,0,0,0,1.488,1.482h.373V366.127a1.486,1.486,0,0,1,1.488-1.482h8.912Z" transform="translate(0 0)" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" stroke-miterlimit="10" stroke-width="1"/> <path id="Path_2597" data-name="Path 2597" d="M684.4,393.849h-8.171a0,0,0,1,1,0-.009H684.4s0,0,0,.009S684.4,393.849,684.4,393.849Z" transform="translate(-5.55 -16.616)" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" stroke-miterlimit="10" stroke-width="1"/> <path id="Path_2598" data-name="Path 2598" d="M684.4,389.069h-8.171a0,0,0,0,1,0,0s0,0,0,0H684.4s0,0,0,.009Z" transform="translate(-5.55 -14.058)" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" stroke-miterlimit="10" stroke-width="1"/> <path id="Path_2599" data-name="Path 2599" d="M684.4,384.289h-8.171a0,0,0,0,1,0,0s0,0,0,0H684.4s0,0,0,.009Z" transform="translate(-5.55 -11.5)" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" stroke-miterlimit="10" stroke-width="1"/> <path id="Path_2600" data-name="Path 2600" d="M684.4,379.509h-8.171a0,0,0,0,1,0,0s0,0,0,0H684.4s0,0,0,.009Z" transform="translate(-5.55 -8.942)" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" stroke-miterlimit="10" stroke-width="1"/> </g> </svg> </span> <a class="page--itm--views--list-item--link" href="/news-clip/times-higher-education-20">Learn more</a> <span class="page--itm--views--list-item--link-arrow">→</span> </div> </div> </div> </article> </div> <div class="page--itm--views--list-item"><article class="page--itm--views--list-item--content"> <div class="page--itm--views--list-item--content--inner"> <div class="page--itm--views--list-item--content--outlet"> <h3 class="page--itm--views--list-item---outlet"> <span> Forbes </span> </h3> <div class="page--itm--views--list-item--publication-date"> <span> <time datetime="2024-11-21T05:00:00Z">November 21, 2024</time> </span> </div> </div> <div class="page--itm--views--list-item--content--details"> <div class="page--itm--views--list-item--descr"> <span> <p>MIT has been named the top university on the <em>Times Higher Education </em>2025 Interdisciplinary Science Rankings, reports Michael T.
