This is an initialism formed from the initial letters of a proper name; the letters themselves do not convey the meaning unless the expansion is known.
Etymology
MIT is a short form made from the first letters of Massachusetts, Institute, and Technology, so each letter stands for one word. That's why MIT means the famous university in Cambridge that focuses on science and engineering.
