International Relations Council of Berkeley

INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS - SCIENCES

The IRC engages the Berkeley community on topics of international relations by providing a platform for IR content and discussion, along with hosting professional events to showcase the diversity of the field and increase exposure for our members. A relatively new organization at Cal, the IRC was formed out of a union between five different IR orgs on campus. Our goal is to consolidate interest in IR by making knowledge, events, and opportunities in the vast field of international relations widely available and easily accessible to the campus community. We seek to engage the Berkeley community holistically on topics of international affairs including foreign service, international politics, diplomacy, human rights and academia. We achieve this by hosting various career oriented events, our Globe Bears Podcast, publishing a biweekly newsletter, and by active news generation and discussion. In essence, IRC provides a platform for students of all backgrounds to come together to discuss current international affairs and engage in meaningful development opportunities all while fostering a community of inclusion.
