Berkeley Engineering Fund

Berkeley Engineering Fund

As engineers know, there’s power in numbers. Each year, thousands of Berkeley Engineering alumni, parents, friends and students prove it by giving to the Berkeley Engineering Fund. Their contributions come in all sizes. Together, they create a vital pool of funds that the dean uses to invest in our academic core, seize opportunities for innovation and respond to unforeseen challenges.

It’s no wonder that the Berkeley Engineering Fund is the dean’s top fundraising priority.

Join the Dean’s Society

Give $2,500 or more annually to the Berkeley Engineering Fund and become a member of the Dean’s Society. GOLD alumni — graduates of the last decade — become members with an annual gift of $1,000 or more. Learn more about the Dean’s Society.

Your gift has an immediate impact on our students and faculty. It helps launch the teaching and research of new professors. It enriches the student experience with leadership development opportunities, academic support and programs for new students. It provides the resources to upgrade labs and teaching facilities and seed exciting new research.

Invest in all that makes Berkeley Engineering great. If you have questions, call us at (510) 642-2487 or email bef@berkeley.edu.
