SAP Rooms

Although non-departmental SAP rooms are available on a limited basis, the Department controls only one classroom (3-329, small seminar room with plasma screen and Zoom setup — to make a non-class reservation for 3-329, please visit the ATLAS App on your phone or use the sign-up iPad located outside the room's door.) and we rely almost solely on Institute rooms. To make non-classroom reservations for the 7-338 (Stella Room), 7-429 (Long Lounge) or the pinup areas visit SAP's online room request system (DUSP rooms can also be booked for non-class reservations).

Institute Room Inventory

Classrooms for your regularly scheduled classes are requested during the scheduling process when completing the Subject Scheduling Request. After the scheduling process, requests and change requests should go to Tonya Miller. Please note that DUSP classroom availability is not known until very close to the start of each term. We recommend that you request a room with your desired attributes during the scheduling process and then check with Tonya near the start of the term regarding DUSP room availability.

To view specifics on the Institute's classroom inventory:

Visit Classrooms @ MIT for specifications of rooms with photos.

The Schedules Office will give classroom priority to those conforming to the standard schedule listed below. Classes scheduled in the early morning, after 4 PM and on Fridays will have a broader option of desirable classrooms.

We ask for your clarity when requesting a classroom and flexibility when a specific room is not available.
