“The fellowship program is a great way to learn more about yourself, gain fresh perspectives, and, of course, meet brilliant human beings!”
Mid Career
Priscilla E., ’10

”Bouncing ideas, fears, and learning experiences off of fellow alums, who all brought something different to the table, gave me fresh insight into my own career process.“

“The fellowship takes advantage of the tremendous reservoir of MIT alumni talent, and reminds you that MIT alumni are the best career development resource that you can have!“
How it works
The Fellowship is not 1:1 coaching — it‘s a peer learning career development program based on the principles of Design Thinking. Starting Saturday, October 23, spend about five hours per week doing the following:
Complete assignments on your own time

Learn the Career Design Process from experts, explore MIT career resources, and complete insightful exercises at your own pace by the provided deadlines.
Weekly team working sessions

Work with a diverse team of fellow MIT alumni to get new perspectives and enlightening feedback. Choose between Weds at 12 p.m. ET or 7 p.m. ET or Thurs at 9 p.m. ET.
Weekly calls with your Partner

We‘ll match you with another MIT alum that you have a lot in common with. To keep you accountable, you‘ll have weekly calls at times that work for both of you.
Leverage the whole community

Crowdsource ideas, resources, and connections from MIT alumni, your personal network, and the Fellowship facilitators. You have an entire community supporting you!
What you‘ll experience
Expect to spend about five hours per week on the Fellowship. You‘ll have a 1.5 hour video meeting with your assigned MIT Alumni Team once per week (Weds at 12 p.m. ET, Weds at 7 p.m. ET, or Thurs at 9 p.m. ET, you pick). You‘ll also have weekly hour-long phone calls with your assigned MIT Alumni Partner (at times you choose together).
