The Massachusetts Institute of Technology may have its physical campus in Boston, but its reach and impact are global.
In San Diego, for example, several leading entrepreneurs have earned degrees from MIT. These include the co-founders of Qualcomm — Irwin Mark Jacobs and Andrew Viterbi; Peter Farrell, founder of ResMed; Farrell’s son Michael, a senior executive at ResMed; and venture capitalist Kevin Kinsella. In addition, hundreds more work in key positions in our technology and life sciences companies and research institutes.
