The UC Berkeley Staff Fellowship program is a campus-sponsored initiative providing staff members an opportunity to gain exposure to an area beyond their immediate job context. It is designed to attract and develop highly capable, competitive and career-focused individuals, thus creating a pipeline of exceptional talent familiar with working at UC Berkeley. The program focuses on the professional development of staff members and is structured to provide fellows with unique experience that may not be typically available to someone starting out in a new field of work. This is a great opportunity to explore, experiment, and learn!
