Explore Hillel Foundation at Miami University

Hillel at Miami University is the center of Jewish life on campus, offering students a welcoming community where they can connect, celebrate, lead, and grow. Whether students are looking for Shabbat dinners, holiday celebrations, meaningful conversations, leadership opportunities, or simply a place to feel at home, Hillel provides a vibrant and inclusive space for Jewish life at Miami. Students from all Jewish backgrounds and levels of experience are welcomed and encouraged to explore Judaism in ways that are meaningful to them. Hillel is your go-to hub for Jewish life on campus. No matter your Jewish background, there is something here for you! With approximately 800–1,000 Jewish students from all over the country and world, you’ll find a diverse and inclusive community that celebrates everyone’s unique journey. Hillel hosts a huge variety of programs throughout the year — Shabbat dinners and holiday celebrations, Israel trips, leadership opportunities, social events, and everything in between. Hillel: AJS (Association of Jewish Students) is an active student group registered at Miami University. AJS has won multiple University awards for programming and community service. We have many different ways to get involved, from our Jewish Business Leadership Council, in partnership with Farmer School of Business, one of our many student internship leadership opportunities, to being involved as a Jewish leader in Greek life, learning about and supporting Israel and much more! At Miami University, Jewish life is thriving — and we’re always working with students to launch new initiatives and continue to embrace a strong Jewish life on campus. Want to see what we’re all about? Stop by Hillel — we’d love to meet you! Reach out to our staff and ask questions, chat, or arrange a meet-up with someone from our student board.
