About BERC

The Berkeley Energy and Resources Collaborative (BERC) is a multidisciplinary network of UC Berkeley students, alumni, faculty, and industry professionals. BERC is entirely student-run and spans 11 colleges and 28 departments across UC Berkeley.

We plan and host a variety of conferences and events across the year, including the annual Energy Summit and Resources Symposium, monthly “BERCshop” panels, the Clean Energy Speaker Series course at the Haas School of Business, and the annual Climate Change 101 event for Berkeley students. Our partnership with the Energy Institute at Haas helps us provide our members with opportunities to engage with cutting-edge research and current industry applications.
