More than 7,000 volunteers support the work of the Alumni Association and the Institute by helping to sustain diverse programs and services. Roles vary from mentoring a promising student to helping to organize an MIT gathering in your town to serving on a governing board. Volunteers get the satisfaction of giving back to MIT while networking with fellow alumni and learning new skills.

Volunteer Opportunities

This dynamic bulletin board invites alumni to view and respond to short and long-term volunteer positions submitted by volunteer leaders and staff. Current volunteers are encouraged to add opportunities to the list.

Volunteer Awards and National Volunteer Leadership Roles

Though many of our top alumni volunteers tell us that the service is its own reward, the Alumni Association formally recognizes alumni and friends of MIT who demonstrate outstanding service and accomplishment. Awards are presented annually at the Alumni Leadership Conference held on campus each fall.

Alumni serve in national leadership roles on the Alumni Association’s Board of Directors, its national boards and committees, and as alumni nominees to the MIT Corporation and its visiting committees.

Resources for Volunteers

Online tools, handbooks, and information from other volunteers and Association staff help alumni thrive in their volunteer efforts.
