Class of 2010 Students Featured in Reuters Article
Real estate looks like the next big thing for Soveriegn
Wealth Funds (SWFs) according to a Reuters article
profiling thesis research by two MIT/CRE students. Co-
authors Pulkit Sharma and Yoohoon Jeon, slated to
graduate from MIT in 2010, found that SWFs could invest
up to almost $290 billion a year in real estate — nearly a
tenth of their assets — over the next five years to hedge
their volatile source of wealth.
MIT – Automotive Industry
Before a Transition to Hydrogen Transportation Research
Project
This project is part of a sustainable mobility research initiative undertaken as part of MIT's
Alliance for Global Sustainability (MIT/AGS) program. The Before-H2 research team is interested in near- to
medium-term solutions that would curb petroleum and energy use, and greenhouse gas emissions from the
transportation sector
Oil and Lubrication Research Consortium
The overall goal of this consortium is to provide engineering knowledge and models of the engine
lubrication systems by conducting engine experiments, engine tests, and theoretical modeling.
Engine and Fuels Research Consortium
The focus of research projects in recent years has been on spark-ignition engine combustion,
emissions formation processes, and mixture preparation issues. More recently we are working on
gasoline direct-injection engine processes, on engine knock, and alternative fuels.
