Meor Brandeis

MEOR Vision is a sophisticated and nuanced look at how Jewish wisdom can impact modern life. Through dynamic discussions, one-on-one learning, traveling, on-site classes, and outdoor adventures, participants develop greater clarity of personal, spiritual, and professional vision.

Together with outstanding Jewish educators and lay leaders, students delve into relevant Jewish wisdom focused on character development and self-actualization.

What began as a Jewish mentorship experiment on a single university campus has quickly grown into a masterwork of Jewish engagement operating on 20 prominent college campuses across the country and beyond.

Launched in 2005, MEOR’s unique brand of Jewish leadership training, sophisticated text-based study, and experiential education programming highlight the importance of Jewish values, identity, and community. In over fifteen years, MEOR has impacted more than 18,000 undergraduate students, encouraging them to connect with Judaism on their own terms and in their own time.

In 2016, MEOR established post-university programming to ensure that its alumni would have a familial Jewish framework for sustained growth as young professionals.

Now in its second decade, MEOR continues to ignite the Jewish flame within a new generation of young Jewish leaders who are hungry for community, continuity and connectivity.

What they run

MEOR’s Maimonides Leaders Fellowship provides the most promising Jewish students on leading U.S. campuses with a unique opportunity to explore Judaism at a level of depth and sophistication commensurate with their academic skills and aspirations . In a dynamic and open environment, students are introduced to classical Jewish philosophy, the relevance of Jewish wisdom to contemporary issues and Jewish perspectives on some of life’s most challenging questions.

More Info MEOR JInternship Upon completion of MEOR’s summer Israel trip or MEOR’s 2.0 Vision Program, students have the opportunity to participate in MEOR JInternship. MEOR JInternship is an immersive 6 week summer experience in Israel that pairs leadership training and career skills development with high-level international internships in various fields of interest. While living and working in Jerusalem like a true resident (rather than a tourist), students take classes in Jewish and Israeli history, literature and culture, participate in guided study of Jewish philosophy and business ethics, and work with mentors to develop plans for personal and professional advancement.

MEOR Poland employs a distinctly Jewish approach to engaging Judaism at its core, wrestling with the struggles of our people and engraving the lessons and impact of this journey upon our lives. This transformational experience is likely to be the most impactful and enlightening week of your college career, and quite possibly your entire life.
