THINK is organised by MIT undergraduates for students who have researched the background of a potential project but lack the resources to carry it out. Selected finalists meet weekly with THINK team members for technical guidance, receive up to $1,000 in project funding and, if permitting, a four-day all-expenses-paid trip to MIT to tour labs and present their research. Proposals span fields from green technologies and practical devices to software applications.
