Environmentorship

A group of people cheer and smile
  • Are you passionate about the environment and sustainability?

  • Interested in mentoring? 

  • Want to start a dialogue about climate change and climate justice?

  • Wish to meet new people in the field of environmentalism? 

Join the Enviromentorship Program! 

The Environmentorship program strives to cultivate a collaborative space to strengthen the collective effectiveness of the sustainability community and provide resources for students to actualize their visions of a more equitable, socially just, and resilient future. Mentors will help guide mentees to attain personal, academic, and career achievements in the field of environmental sustainability. The mentorship program will give both alumni and students a chance to engage with one another in meaningful discussions about sustainability and climate justice, as well as their personal goals. 

We are proud to announce that we will be partnering with the ASUC Eco-Office for the 2025 Environmentorship Program! Students will now have the option to choose between an undergraduate mentor through the Eco-Office, or a mentor in the workforce or graduate school through SERC. 

Spring 2025 Mentorship Program applications are open now until December 6th! *DEADLINE EXTENDED*

Additional Resources

We recognize there is a strong need and demand for mentors at Berkeley, especially within the field of environmental sustainability, and that there are not enough resources to meet the growing demand. We have compiled a list of resources on campus that can potentially be of use to students as they continue to go forward in their college career and beyond:

  • Sign up for SERC’s newsletter! There are so many opportunities and ways to get involved on and off campus, and SERC’s newsletter is a great place to start! We send out job/internship opportunities, workshop information, and more! 

  • SERC Membership ProgramSERC Membership was piloted in Fall 2016, with the goal of providing individual students the opportunity to help build a collaborative, inclusive student community around sustainability. We aim to preserve institutional memory around environmental projects, build a more cohesive community, and get new students plugged into existing events.
