A system and method for connecting superconducting magnet coils made up of coil segments to allow an integrated winding concept. The integrated winding concept can include serially connecting coil segments of coil pairs in an alternating pattern, which causes coil pairs to be electrically symmetric. Symmetric coil pairs can eliminate or significantly reduce the currents in magnet coils induced by gradient or other pulses, produce a homogenous field, and reduce the accumulated voltages in the coils due to gradient pulsing.
