Berkeley Law Leads

The Berkeley Law Leads campaign highlights leadership across the law school in various aspects of the law. This campaign consists of this video, an illustration style, student interviews, alumni spotlights, and the tagline “Painting a New Picture of Leadership.”

Launched in 2023, Berkeley Law’s Leadership Academy provides funding, support, and training to the next generation of leaders. The academy is designed for students hoping to serve society in an array of leadership roles, from government officials and judges to nonprofit executives and startup founders. To that aim, the academy helps students recognize, foster, and develop their leadership acumen skills.

The initiative provides an extra $10,000 scholarship per year on top of the student’s existing gift aid award. In addition to the scholarship, the program offers training to effectively lead people and solve problems in both the public and private sectors. The academy will also have opportunities to meet accomplished Berkeley Law alums and leaders, including elected officials, judges, CEOs, government advisors, and founders. Students will leave Berkeley Law with a jump-start to their careers and the skills to make an impact no matter their career path.
