MIT-Kalaniyot

Who We Are

The MIT-Kalaniyot program is a faculty-led initiative focused at building a stronger MIT campus community while deepening ties between MIT and Israeli researchers.

We work to promote excellence, a focus on the MIT mission of research, education, and entrepreneurship, open collaboration, and respectful living in an international community.

“Kalaniyot forged a community that was not there before. To me, this made a huge difference, it allowed me to return to work and get the resources and support that I needed.”

– Sivan, MIT Postdoctoral Scholar
