MIT sponsors a special weekend of activities for families of MIT students every October under the sponsorship of the MIT Parents Program. In conjunction with this event, MIT Hillel invites parents to join the campus Jewish community for our Shabbat and special events. Stay tuned for more information on this year’s Family Weekend.

Recordings from this highly successful program can be found here.

Upcoming events can be found here.

The Faculty Host Committee – Professors Deborah Ancona, Alan Guth, Daniel Jackson, and Robert Pindyck – graciously invites their collegues to speak for Hillel. Rabbi Michelle Fisher provides a Jewish framework for each topic. We allow time before and after each talk for attendees to connect and schmooze with each other.

To receive evites to this program, please email hillelrsvp@mit.edu.

Hillel also hosts an annual reception for Jewish alumni/ae every May/June in conjunction with Commencement. If you will be attending the Tech Week reunion activities, please contact Hillel at: hillel@mit.edu.

The MIT Hillel Board of Directors has instituted an outreach effort to Jewish alumni/ae living in other parts of North America. Any alumni/ae interested in hosting a reception in their city should contact Hillel Executive Director Rabbi Michelle Fisher.

More than three hundred MIT alumni/ae live in Israel. The MIT Club of Israel serves as an MIT liaison to this population.

The Entrepreneurship Forum Israel (Formerly MIT Enterprise Forum Israel) promotes the formation and growth of innovative and technologically-oriented companies through a series of specialized executive education programs.


MIT Hillel depends on the generosity of Jewish parents and alumni/ae for the majority of its annual funding. Donate to MIT Hillel online.
