The Bangali Student Association (BSA) at Berkeley's primary goal is to provide a space for those affiliated with or interested in the Bangali culture to meet other members of the community and celebrate our language, culture, and history.

BSA stands on the principles of diversity and inclusiveness for all community members, including both Bangladeshi and West Bengali/Indian students of all heritages, backgrounds, and religious affiliations.

Aside from fostering a social and educational community for Bangali students, we strive to promote awareness and appreciation of Bangali people in the UC Berkeley community through the celebration of various social and cultural activities.

We also seek to improve the quality of life of the Bangali people through contributions to nonprofit organizations and relief efforts that support education, health, climate resilience and economic development in West Bengal and Bangladesh.
