IMUSE (Initiating Mutual Understanding through Student Exchange) was founded in 2007 as a collaboration between students at Harvard University, Peking University, and Tsinghua University. Since 2017, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology has also become part of the IMUSE team. IMUSE aims to build and provide a platform for open exchange between youths from China and the United States, by recruiting representatives from all over the world and gathering the top minds of both countries. By fostering deep and friendly interaction between outstanding college students, participants can together explore issues, solutions, trends regarding the future development of China, the US, and the rest of the world. In the process, participants also learn from different experiences, cultures, and mindsets, while also sharing their insights and engaging with the development of the century.
