The Center for Art, Science & Technology (CAST) supports the development of creative projects, artist residencies, cross-disciplinary classes and research that integrates the arts and has significant student engagement or impact on campus.
CAST offers several categories of funding for MIT faculty and principal or senior research staff from all departments, labs and centers. Two new types of grants were established in 2016, the Mellon Faculty Grant and the Fay Chandler Faculty Creativity Seed Grant.
