Greater Good Science Center Research Fellowship

Apply for a Research Fellowship from UC Berkeley’s

Greater Good Science Center!

The Greater Good Science Center studies the psychology, sociology, and neuroscience of well-being, and teaches skills that foster a thriving, resilient, and compassionate society.

Every year, the GGSC grants research awards to UC Berkeley undergraduate and graduate students whose work relates to our mission. We aim to attract scholars across a broad spectrum of disciplines including neuroscience, psychology, sociology, public health, social welfare, business, and more. 

We are interested in work that relates to themes like:

§  The biological underpinnings of empathy, pro-social emotions and altruism

§  Contexts and practices that promote well-being, both individually and interpersonally

§  The impact of pro-social states like compassion and gratitude on health at individual, local and global levels 

Take a look at the great work being done by our current GGSC Fellows!

Applications may be submitted online beginning March 1, and must be submitted by Monday, April 15th, 2013.
