Berkeley Discovery Initiative

Catalyze undergraduate students' creation & innovation

“Berkeley Discovery is here to empower students to challenge their creativity and explore new heights outside of the classroom…a stepping-stone for my time here at Berkeley...a reminder that not every path is linear and equal, but rather unique to each individual’s experiences.” - Transfer student who took part in a Discovery program

Make this the voice of every undergraduate student at Berkeley!

Donate to Berkeley Discovery, a campus wide intervention in traditional undergraduate education, to provide every student with the tools to succeed in society and the world.

Your gift will help us:

Develop new Discovery Research Hubs where graduate students mentor clusters of undergraduate researchers.
Create new courses where students pursue independent research and creative projects while fulfilling major requirements.
Provide grants to facilitate students’ personalized, creative and innovative discovery ventures.
