Our MIT Curriculum Overview
Creativity and thinking outside the box lead to discoveries that can change the world in incredible ways. At Nord Anglia, we nurture great thinkers and innovators, and our collaboration with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) gives students an introduction to interdisciplinary STEAM learning, building a lifelong foundation for curiosity, problem-solving, and real-world skills such as coding, 3D printing, technology, communication, and collaboration.
Real-World Challenges and Hands-On Learning
Although often taught separately, science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics become powerful tools when combined. Students experience the thrill of tackling the same challenges MIT professors and researchers are working on today, from designing filtration devices for Mars to solving complex problems with hands-on projects. Each year, our STEAM students show that natural curiosity, when inspired by leading experts, can produce extraordinary results.
Learning Beyond the Classroom
Learning extends beyond the classroom through trips to leading tech companies in New York City like Google, Duolingo, and BARK, where students see innovation in action and practice applying their skills to real-world challenges.
STEAM Teacher Workshops
Our STEAM teachers participate in workshops at MIT that expose them to the forefront of STEAM research and thinking. Every summer, they receive hands-on training from renowned researchers and engage in discussions with leading engineers and scientists on topics such as climate change, bioengineering, and space exploration. This ensures that students benefit from the latest knowledge and university-inspired learning in the classroom.
