Berkeley Energy & Resources Collaborative (BERC) connects, educates and motivates students, alumni, faculty and industry professionals to address the world's energy and resources challenges.
BERC hosts conferences and events covering key topics within energy and resources, including the annual Energy Summit, Resources Symposium, monthly BERCshops and regular social gatherings. We provide our members with opportunities to engage with cutting-edge research and current industry applications through programs such as the Innovation Expo and FieldTreks to visit with climate oriented organizations across the Bay Area.
BERC relies on grants and donations in order to maintain FREE MEMBERSHIP for anyone interested in energy, resources, or climate action more broadly. Help BERC live out its mission by joining our climate action campaign!
100% of donations will go towards the operational costs of hosting our biggest events of the year:
