_{MITRE is a not-for-profit organization that operates research and development centers sponsored by the federal government.}

_{We operate FFRDCs—federally funded research and development centers—which are unique organizations that assist the United States government with:}

• _{Scientific research and analysis}
• _{Development and acquisition}
• _{Systems engineering and integration}

_{We also have an independent research program that explores new and expanded uses of technologies to solve our sponsors’ problems.}

_{MITRE is chartered to work in the public interest. We have no commercial interests. We have no owners or shareholders, and we can’t compete for anything except the right to operate FFRDCs. This lack of commercial conflicts of interest forms the basis for our objectivity. We also have the ability to acquire sensitive and proprietary information from the government and industry to inform our work. These organizations are able and willing to share data because they know we won’t use it for a competitive advantage.}

_{Moreover, because we operate multiple FFRDCs, we foster a culture of knowledge sharing. We apply what we learn from addressing one sponsor’s challenges to similar issues faced by other federal agencies. This means when sponsors engage with us, they have access to all the minds of MITRE.}

_{OUR HISTORY}

_{Advancing science and technology in the public interest—from the dawn of the Information Age to today}

_{MITRE’s roots began in the computer laboratories of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) during World War II. Throughout the 1940s and early 1950s, MIT’s scientists developed the first large-scale digital computer, dubbed Whirlwind I. A group of engineers working at MIT Lincoln Laboratory’s Division 6 continued to expand its capabilities. When the Air Force needed a framework on which to build an advanced air-defense system, it chose Whirlwind I.}

_{In July 1958, The MITRE Corporation was chartered as a private, not-for-profit corporation to provide engineering and technical guidance for the federal government—with an initial focus on defense needs. Following the closure of Division 6, most of the research staff joined MITRE to support the Air Force’s air-defense mission.}

_{The new company took on the task of developing SAGE—the Semi-Automatic Ground Environment pioneering continental air-defense system. SAGE’s complexity demanded an organization that could reach across traditional boundaries among the military, industry, and academia.}

_{Our role integrating SAGE’s many elements established us as a leader in the new discipline of systems engineering. That was just the beginning.}

_{In the decades since, we’ve earned an international reputation for technical excellence and innovation for military and civil agencies. The company and our employees have received many awards recognizing our achievements in aviation, defense, cybersecurity, and much more.}

_{We’re proud to have served the public interest for more than 50 years. We look forward to continuing to serve.}
