Food System Career Fair: Planting Seeds of Connection and Transformation

Friday, March 17, 2023

The Berkeley Food Institute invites you to UC Berkeley’s first ever Food Systems Career Fair: Planting Seeds of Connection & Transformation. We invite students at any point in their academic journey to learn about pathways to create change in food systems. Building a sustainable future requires interdisciplinary voices, so we have invited a diverse set of employers representing policy, community, technology, engineering, business, education, and agriculture all working towards regenerative food systems. Join us to create meaningful connections with on the ground professionals and learn about career pathways.

This event is open to all Berkeley students and staff. In preparation for the career fair we will be sharing various career readiness resources. Keep an eye out for our upcoming resume review night hosted by BFI and The Food Institute Graduate Council. Please register here with your email address here to reserve your spot and receive career readiness resources straight to your inbox.
