The Learning in Retirement Program began in 2000, continues to offer free courses for retirees from UC Berkeley, UC Office of the President and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, and their guests. LIR offers courses in a variety of subject fields, including natural sciences, social sciences, the humanities and the arts.
The Learning in Retirement program would not exist without the dedication of the Learning in Retirement Committee. The committee is chaired by Professor Emeritus Donald Mastronarde, and includes Professors Emeriti Tom Laqueur, Mary Power, and Carlo Sequin, as well as Bob Cahn, Senior Scientist Emeritus, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.
Reference information and slide presentations from Learning in Retirement Programs are available in the LIR online resource library. You can watch past LIR lectures on the Retirement Center YouTube channel by clicking here.
