==Program Name==
Though the MMM Program has been upgraded several times to reflect the current needs and relevance of the marketplace, the name has remained the same. Keeping true to its design curriculum, the team overhauling the program in 2013 underwent extensive user research of current students, alumni, faculty, and employers to understand the needs of the name of the program. It was decided to leave the name as it was without it having any true meaning as an acronym similar to companies like [[3M]], [[NCR Corporation|NCR]], [[SAP SE|SAP]], [[USAA]], or [[IDEO]] which are well known companies but rarely are the meanings of these acronyms known and in some cases the meaning proves to be no longer relevant.
 
==Leadership==
The MMM Program is led by co directors representing both the Kellogg School and the McCormick School. The current directors are Bobby Calder from the Kellogg School and Greg Holderfield from the McCormick School.
 
==Facilities==
Most core curriculum classes for the MMM Program are taught in the Ford Building of the McCormick School with some exceptions. The Ford Building also houses the program's offices and student lounge which is equipped with white boards, smart board, conference rooms, a commons area, and materials for ideation and prototyping. MMM students are also given access to the university's machine shop and 3D printer though MMM students rarely use these resources.
