We welcome hearing from you if you are planning a visit to the Cambridge/Boston area and would like to visit the MIT Physics Department.

  • Prospective undergrads can meet with our Undergraduate Program Coordinator, who will describe the program and undergraduate activities, and answer questions. We can also arrange for you to meet with a current student. Visit arrangements should be made in advance in order to ensure someone is available to meet with you. To request an appointment, contact physics-undergrad@mit.edu.
  • Prospective graduate students have the opportunity to visit campus and speak with faculty and staff during our yearly Graduate Open House every Spring. Information about these events will be emailed directly to prospective students. If you have any questions, contact physics-grad@mit.edu.
  • We do not arrange visits with faculty members, but you may contact research labs and/or individual faculty directly to ask about possibly meeting during your visit.
