PKG Center for Public Service
Stretch Your Impact in Tech for Social Good:
Exploring Employment Options
WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 18TH, 12-1PM ET

Throughout this summer, the PKG Center for Public Service at MIT hosted a series of sessions highlighting public interest technology work and the folx engaged in this field. We offered a mixture of panels, discussions, and workshops with students, faculty, and community partners to think more deeply about stretching the impact of our technological skills by using them in public good spaces. This final session is open to all MIT students and the wider community, and we particularly welcome participation by other schools in the PIT-UN network.

For the culminating session of the "Stretch Your Impact" summer series, we will hear from four folx representing public interest technology organizations where MIT students have interned/worked in the past. We will learn about these organizations and how interested individuals might get involved in their work. Learn more about our guests and the places they serve below:
