My girlfriend and I went here after a campus tour. We are both huge needs and had an absolute blast. There are so many interesting things to see. What surprised me was the philosophical viewpoints of the science and how they integrate that into the morality of the science. It was a very thought-provoking and interesting experience.
My girlfriend didn't think she was going to enjoy it, but she wound up absolutely loving it. She said it was one of the highlights of our Boston trip. MIT is amazing.

Surprisingly amazing! We didn't expect to spend so much time here, but the displays were great! Many of them were interactive and had stools to sit while you tried the activity. One of my favorites was a display where you create a poem with AI (they can turn out quite funny). We went during the genetics exhibition, which was where we spent the most time. There were so many interesting machines and art pieces to look at, and the staff was pretty knowledgeable and very helpful. They answered my questions readily. There's also a gift shop at the end. I'd recommend this museum to anyone! The ticket is a good price, and if you enjoy robotics and/or science, you'll love the displays!
While the MIT Museum carries a higher entry fee at $18, the experience it offers is undeniably cool and unique. Despite not being as entertaining as some other science museums, its focus on academic and technological aspects provides an intellectually enriching visit. The cleanliness of the museum enhances the overall atmosphere, ensuring a pleasant environment for exploration. Although the price may be a consideration, the distinctive experience and the museum's commitment to cleanliness make it a worthwhile destination for those interested in the intersection of science and technology.
