Fung Institute of Engineering Leadership’s faculty and staff will be working closely with researchers part of the Bakar Fellow Program, a pilot program launched by UC Berkeley to help early-career faculty commercialize innovative research discoveries and bolster ongoing campus efforts to turn pioneering science into practical results.
The Bakar Fellows Program will target faculty research projects with a high degree of commercial promise across the fields of engineering, computer science, chemistry and biological and physical sciences, with the goal of guiding more discoveries from the research lab to the marketplace.
