These are just some of the amazing photos taken by our partners at @datascienceUY during this year's GSL program in Uruguay! Through this partnership, @mitstudents taught the latest in data science and machine learning, and helped the participants develop their business ideas to break through these industries. We're so glad to have been able to take on this unique opportunity! . . . . . . . . #IAP2020 #mitstudents #studyabroad #teachabroad #travel #MIT #massachusettsinstituteoftechnology #stem #innovation #science #math #machinelearning #datascience #uruguay #technology #thisismit #mitbetterworld #innovation #gomisti #business #montevideo #technology

Not only have our @mitstudents been teaching in Africa and Asia, they have also been in South America, at the @tiradentesinnovation center in Brazil 🇧🇷 @mitbrazil said it best about the program: "This technology entrepreneurship bootcamp will have a focus on solving education challenges and is lead by @mitstudents. The MIT students-instructors and gifted @unit_br students will work together for 4 intensive weeks. The MIT students will guide the participants through a real-world entrepreneurial experience. Courses focus on ideation, market research, pitching, and appropriate technology platforms, culminating with a pitch and prototype competition." (Also, if you didn't take a group photo, did you really do GSL?) . . . . . . . . . #IAP2020 #mitstudents #studyabroad #teachabroad #travel #MIT #massachusettsinstituteoftechnology #stem #steam #innovation #science #math #Brazil #jerusalem #technology #thisismit #mitbrazil #mitbetterworld #unit_br #innovation #gomisti #tiradentesinnovation

@mitstudents have also been in @mistimitisrael for GSL, teaching I-STEAM (Innovation, Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math) subjects across 15 different schools. Come to teach, stay for the views 🤩 . . . . . . . #IAP2020 #mitstudents #studyabroad #teachabroad #travel #MIT #massachusettsinstituteoftechnology #stem #steam #innovation #science #math #israel #jerusalem #technology
