Women at MIT

Women at MIT Women@MIT offers information and resources for students at MIT who identify as women or non-binary. Our center on campus is 3-310, the Margaret Cheney Room.

We are proud to be part of the network of offices, departments, and organizations that support and empower these students at MIT. Women@MIT connects resources and organizations that seek to empower and support students at MIT. The Margaret Cheney Room was founded in 1884 in recognition of the fact that women have traditionally been denied a safe space of their own, especially in the STEM fields. I

n light of its founding mission, the Cheney Room exists to promote community and empower all students at MIT who experience gender-based systems of oppression. This includes (but is not limited to) self-identified women, transgender women, and non-binary individuals. The space is open 24/7 to students with ID access. Cheney Room members are encouraged to use the space’s kitchen, lounge, study room, and nursing room. Lockers are also available free of charge. If you have questions, comments, or suggestions, or to request access to the Cheney Room, please email us at [email protected].
