Students
Prospective students: 21.01 will be running in the Fall 2025 and Spring 2026 semesters! Our class has historically been over-enrolled and needed to turn some students away off of the waitlist, so pre-register ASAP for the best chances of taking the class. For other questions, email compass-class@mit.edu.
Current students: Welcome to Compass! If you have questions, check Canvas, email your instructional team and TAs, or reach out to the course administrator at compass-class@mit.edu.
Faculty
We are currently developing application processes for joining the 21.01 teaching team and submitting lessons for the class. For now, email Lily Tsai at compass-class@mit.edu to express interest, and stay tuned for a formal call for proposals!
