Cal in Berkeley Student Internship Program

University of California at Berkeley - CA, California

Cal in Berkeley, a program of UC Berkeley’s Cal Corps Public Service Center, is a student internship program dedicated to connecting UC Berkeley students with internships in the City of Berkeley government, Berkeley Unified School District, and related community-based nonprofit organizations. Student interns are placed in positions for about 10 hours per week while attending a regular weekly service-learning seminar to discuss their internship experience, learn more about the Berkeley community, and reflect on the role of government service in the larger discussion of public service.

Cal in Berkeley interns apply their academic experiences to specific projects in the community. Past internships have focused on safety survey analysis, information technology support, community mapping, and health insurance outreach.
