Almost all of the research by MIT EECS faculty, staff, and students is carried out in interdepartmental laboratories, centers, and programs. The primary labs include the Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Lab (CSAIL), the Laboratory for Information and Decision Systems (LIDS), the Microsystems and Technology Laboratories (MTL) and the Research Laboratory of Electronics (RLE). For a complete list of laboratories, centers and programs at MIT, visit http://web.mit.edu/research/.
As a convenience for administering the department doctoral program, research activities in EECS are divided into two Graduate Research Areas.
