Jacob (Yaakov) Zerykier

Hello there! 

I'm Jacob Zerykier (Zeh-Rih-Kher), but many call me Ya'akov (Ya'ah-Cove). I'm an undergraduate student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in Cambridge, MA, pursuing a bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering (Course 2 in MIT speak).

At MIT, I'm a part of the Solar Electric Vehicle Team (SEVT) where we design, build, and race multi-occupant, solar-powered cars. I'm an Associate Advisor within Terrascope, a program where first-year students work to tackle a global issue. I'm also a member of the Committee on Curricula (CoC), where I help shape MIT's undergraduate subjects.

On this website you can view my formal resume, see some of the projects I've worked on, and get in touch with me.
