From UC Berkeley Jepson Herbarium
In 2026, we are excited to offer scholarship and volunteer opportunities for students! Both cover the registration fees of a Jepson workshop. The cost of travel and accommodations are not included.
Upon selection, student volunteers are expected to help with some pre-workshop logistics (e.g., collecting plant specimens, scouting workshop sites, etc.) and during-workshop tasks (e.g., washing dishes, picking up food, general cleanup, etc.). One to two students are chosen for each workshop, and can only attend one workshop per year.
If you are interested in either a scholarship or volunteer opportunity, please fill out our application form at least eight weeks prior to the workshop you are interested in. You will be notified at least six weeks in advance of the workshop if you have been selected.
Please reach out to Nina House (ninahouse@berkeley.edu) or Staci Markos (smarkos@berkeley.edu) if you have any questions.
