University of California, Berkeley

Very significantly historic university. There is many good stories to everything from the floor to the structure of the buildings. Students here achieve academic excellence and fight for what they believe. Students here fight for justice and come together to be able to do so.

The campus is beautiful and in a decent location not too far from San Francisco. The students are very passionate about what they do and it seems that the school really cares about providing students with clubs, services, and classes that can truly benefit them. It would be an honor to attend this school. A+ from me. Only downside is that it was hard to find good restaurants around there. And I watched a guy get arrested on campus so that was interesting. They don't really have parking options. It's a walking school for sure. The nature and campus is welcoming, gorgeous, and an overall peaceful atmosphere. Truly a beauty.

GO BEARS! Oh, wait, that's not a review. That's a statement of fact. I was at cal in the early 80s. I have nothing but fond memories. I made some great friends. The only thing I can really say negative is that the campus wasn't so clean.

I swung by this university purely as a tourist, and I gotta say, I was seriously blown away by the architecture and the beauty of the campus. If you ask me, this is exactly how all campuses should be planned out. Honestly, if I were a student, I'd be absolutely more than happy to call this place my school.

Beautiful campus. We did a tour a few years back and was blown away. Had a picnic here during sunset before heading back to busy San Francisco. The two things I remember the most are the library and the clock tower. They had some art around the campus which I thought was super cool. I come from a very art driven town (or used to be) and it is awesome to see art for all to see.

The true #1 Public university in the world. UC Berkeley’s campus is a true marvel that has left an indelible mark on history. Its sprawling grounds house a rich tapestry of academic excellence, innovation, and societal impact. With a legacy spanning decades, Berkeley stands as a cornerstone of progress, nurturing countless minds that have gone on to change the world.

The Free Speech Movement of the 1960s, born on these grounds, ignited a wave of activism that reverberated globally, sparking conversations and actions that still resonate today.

Berkeley’s contribution to society is perhaps best exemplified by its impressive roster of Nobel laureates. These brilliant minds, nurtured within its hallowed halls, have made groundbreaking discoveries across disciplines, altering the trajectory of human understanding. Their collective achievements have expanded our knowledge of the universe, from physics to economics, chemistry to medicine.

The campus’s collaborative ethos has fostered an environment where ideas flourish, transcending traditional boundaries. Interdisciplinary research initiatives have birthed innovations with far-reaching implications, tackling complex challenges in energy, environment, and technology. This commitment to collaboration extends beyond academia, forging partnerships with industry and government to bring research from theory to tangible impact.

In the heart of the San Francisco Bay Area, Berkeley’s influence extends beyond its physical borders. Its cultural vibrancy and progressive values have enriched the community, setting a precedent for positive change and inclusivity. From championing environmental sustainability to promoting diversity, Berkeley embodies a commitment to bettering both its local surroundings and the global community.

UC Berkeley’s campus is a true beacon of intellectual pursuit, social progress, and transformative innovation. Its history of producing Nobel laureates and its lasting contributions to society stand as a testament to its enduring impact on the world. From its dynamic academic environment to its historical significance, Berkeley’s legacy is one of unwavering excellence and inspiration.

Also Stanford sucks. UCLA is overrated af and UCSD is the best socal UC UCSD>>>UCLA

Enjoyed walking the streets of UC Berkeley and appreciating the architecture and the buildings that make the campus.

Berkeley's campus rises like a beacon amidst the concrete jungle. I love the East Coast neighborhood mixed with the small town comfortability vibes this place gives. You can beat the international diversity of students at this institution.

Great campus and programs. My wife is graduating today from the Master in Data Science! So proud of her!

Completed a Master of Information and Data Science from the School of Information. Excellent breadth of content (I picked the program since it was the only one at the time to include an ethics elective), and valuable network with the other (mostly working professional) students, plus UC Berkeley's connections with the tech scene.

Great university. Awesome campus and atmosphere. 150 years completed of this world class university in 2018. Wow.

One of the top 10 universities in the world, the campus is beautiful and big.

In 2023, U.S. News & World Report's Best Global University Ranking ranked Berkeley as the fourth "best university" in the world. A founding member of the Association of American Universities, Berkeley hosts research institutes dedicated to science, engineering, and mathematics. The university founded and maintains relationships with three national laboratories at Berkeley, Livermore and Los Alamos,[16] and has played a role in many scientific advances, from the Manhattan Project and the discovery of 16 chemical elements to breakthroughs in computer science and genomics. Berkeley's athletic teams, which compete as the California Golden Bears primarily in the Pac-12 Conference, have won 107 national championships, and its students and alumni have won 223 Olympic medals (including 121 gold medals).

One of the best university of the states.

Regardless of the politics this is a gorgeous campus

Incredible campus, smaller town feel, but very busy and crowded. One of the nations top schools!

One of the best Public Universities in the USA. Nice atmosphere for students and family but living here is very expensive.

Wonderful school! Finally got to see the school my neice is going to! Had a great lunch together for Mothers Day!

I did a review from doing a review, to make this review, in college teaching , you would be the 3rd reader, or in this case the 3rd review from a review

Pastoral and bucolic these terms apply to Berkeley, and that shows! A complete turnaround from December 2023. Ty, BoomerNaut AKA Dan Goog Maps LG VII
