Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) | The World at MIT: Yasheng Huang @mit | Uploaded June 2024 | Updated October 2024, 5 days ago.
Yasheng Huang intended to return and contribute to society in his native country after studying abroad. Following the Chinese government’s violent crackdown in Tiananmen Square in 1989, however, Yasheng decided to stay in the United States and became increasingly interested in international issues and economics. He currently holds the Epoch Foundation Professorship of Global Economics and Management at the MIT Sloan School of Management and is Faculty Director of the MIT-China Program.
“The World at MIT” videos underscore MIT’s distinctive nature as a community that is at once profoundly American and deeply connected to the world. In brief, three-minute interviews, faculty members recount the experiences and circumstances that drew them here and how and why they came to adopt MIT as their professional home.

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology is an independent, coeducational, privately endowed university in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Our mission is to advance knowledge; to educate students in science, engineering, technology, humanities and social sciences; and to tackle the most pressing problems facing the world today. We are a community of hands-on problem-solvers in love with fundamental science and eager to make the world a better place.
The MIT YouTube channel features videos about all types of MIT research, including the robot cheetah, LIGO, gravitational waves, mathematics, and bombardier beetles, as well as videos on origami, time capsules, and other aspects of life and culture on the MIT campus. Our goal is to open the doors of MIT and bring the Institute to the world through video.
