GEL graduates excel at top-tier companies such as Apple, Adobe, Boeing, Bose, Google, Lockheed Martin, Microsoft, Procter & Gamble, Shell, and SpaceX. They also serve in the U.S. Armed Forces and civilian government agencies such as NASA. How has GEL impacted their careers? (from alumni survey)
Our alumni are a vibrant and growing component of the GEL community. GEL students forge special bonds at MIT that remain strong as they advance in their careers. They become part of a network of fellow GEL alumni who offer advice, guidance, and connections. Alums also have ongoing support from program staff at every stage of their professional journeys.
It all starts with staying in touch! If you are a GEL alum, we invite you to share your milestones, celebrate your achievements, or ask for some career advice. Please contact Eileen Milligan, Student and Industry Relations Manager, emillign@mit.edu, to be added to our emailing list and learn about exclusive alumni events.

You probably fondly remember the course and Camp Cody, enjoying the experience; insights from alumni, skiing and tubing at King Pin, and of course the fantastic food! We are looking for talented alumni who can commit to attending and participating in the course as subject matter experts based on their work experience. Each year, 4-5 alumni serve as project mentors, assistant instructors, and panel discussion participants. If you would like to be considered or have any questions, please contact John Feiler.
Our alumni recognize the vital importance of introducing current students to a diverse array of engineering companies and careers. We frequently seek their help to expand our engineering employer network by serving as a liaison between their company and the GEL Program or by sharing job postings with us. Whether you have entry-level openings for internships or full-time positions for current GELs, or advanced-level opportunities for the GEL alumni network, we are here to assist you in sharing those postings.
Prioritize supporting the GEL Program with your donation. This unique opportunity allows you to shape the future of the program and its students, helping them enhance their communication, teamwork, and engineering leadership skills that are vital for their future success.
