Research, Teaching, and Service: here in beautiful Campbell Hall, we excel at all three. From the breakthrough scientific discoveries made by our students and faculty; to our continuously innovated and increasingly popular classes; to our unstinting efforts in creating a welcoming and inclusive environment for faculty, students, postdocs, and staff, the Berkeley Astronomy Department is second to none in empowering everyone — career astronomers and the lay public alike — to explore the Universe.
May this website serve to connect you with our Berkeley Astronomy community and the kaleidoscopic variety of our activities. Please reach out to us — as astronomers, our life’s work is to talk about literally everything: “all that is or was or ever will be.”
Excelsior!
