The Gardner Fellowship program selects three Fellows from the graduating classes at UC
Berkeley and provides each a $52,000 stipend to work in the governmental or nonprofit
organization that matches their public service interests for ten months. Past fellows have been
placed at such organizations as the ACLU, the State Department, and Governor Newsom's
office. During their Fellowships, fellows are paired with senior-level mentors who guide their
professional growth and development. We are looking forward to finding meaningful
postgraduate public service leadership opportunities for these three Fellows.
The UC Berkeley Gardner Fellowship Program is sponsored by the UC Berkeley Travers Political
Science Department and the Institute of Governmental Studies.
