Yitzchok Cohen is an Orthodox Jewish rabbi and one of the roshei yeshiva at Yeshiva University. He also serves as a rabbi at the Morasha summer "kollel", and is on the faculty of Naaleh.com. He is well known for his mussar speeches which he gives both at Yeshiva University and elsewhere. Prior to moving to the college, Cohen taught in the Yeshiva University High School for Boys, where he served as both the mashgiach ruchani as well as the 10th grade rebbe for the "masmidim" track.

Cohen teaches subjects including Gemara [cite web|last = Cohen|first = Yitzchok|title = Yeshiva University Faculty|url = http://yu.edu/catalog/undergrad/catalog0406_men/d1_faculty_0406_men.htm] , mussar and parsha at Yeshiva University. He is the father-in-law of Rabbi Yaakov Moshe Katz who is a well-known rabbi at the Mir Yeshiva in Jerusalem. He travels to Jerusalem at least once a year and hosts a "melave malka" at his son-in-law's house. Many of Rabbi Cohen's former students who now reside in Israel attend the melave malka.
