The Masdar Institute of Science and Technology in Masdar City, Abu Dhabi was a private, higher-education and research institute active from 2007-2017. In 2017, it merged with two other institutions in Abu Dhabi, Petroleum Institute and Khalifa University, to become the multi-campus, sole-branded Khalifa University. Its previous structure, now part of Khalifa University, is now known as the "Masdar City campus".
Masdar Institute was an integral part of the non-profit side of the Masdar Initiative[4] and was the first institution to occupy Masdar City. The Technology and Development Program at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology provided scholarly assessment and advice to Masdar Institute.[5] As of April 2018[update], the collaborative agreement between the two institutions is still in place and currently hosts several exchange students from the legacy cohorts.[6]
