Extended data:
MIT was founded on 186 1 by william barton rogers, a famous natural scientist. He hoped to create a free college to cater to the rapid development of the United States. Due to the civil war, MIT didn't welcome the first batch of students until 1865, and then it developed rapidly in the fields of nature and engineering. During the Great Depression, MIT was once considered to merge with Harvard University, but was forced to cancel the plan under the protest of its students.
From the name, the correct translation of MIT should be "Massachusetts Institute of Technology", because the translation of MIT began in the Qing Dynasty and is still used by future generations. In North America, Institute refers to a scientific, engineering, scientific, technological, technological or professional institution of higher learning.
The Chinese name of MIT should be translated into MIT according to its academic scale and comprehensive strength, but people have long been used to calling it MIT.
It is worth noting that some people will confuse MIT with MIT. In fact, these are two completely different universities. The University of Massachusetts (UMass) is a large multi-campus public university in Massachusetts.
