ABOUT THE UNIVERSITY:
Founded in 1868, the University of California, Berkeley (UCB) is a public research university and one of the 14 founding members of the Association of American Universities and is home to some world-renowned research institutes, including the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute and the Space Sciences Laboratory.

Berkeley started out with little more than 40 students but by the early 1940s, it had grown substantially and was ranked second only to Harvard.

The Berkeley campus encompasses approximately 1,232 acres of the bay area of Los Angeles. Three quarters of its 40,000 students are undergraduates, giving life on campus a youthful feel in vibrant, urban surrounds.

Berkeley alumni, faculty and researchers include 99 Nobel laureates, 23 Turing Award winners, and 14 Pulitzer Prize winners. Faculty member J. R. Oppenheimer led the Manhattan project to create the first atomic bomb, while Berkeley's Nobel laureate Ernest Lawrence invented the cyclotron, through which UC Berkeley scientists and researchers discovered 16 chemical elements of the periodic table. Other notable alumni include former U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice Earl Warren, Olympic gold medalist Jonny Moseley and actor John Cho, known for his role in the "Harold and Kumar" films.
