Berkeley Webcast Berkeley Webcast (also known as webcast.berkeley) is an initiative of the University of California, Berkeley developed by the Berkeley Multimedia Research Center (BMRC) to share video and audio of full undergraduate courses and on-campus events. Initial research at BMRC was aided by grants from the National Science Foundation. Under its initial name, the "Berkeley Internet Broadcasting System," the project delivered its first seminar webcast January 1995, with the broadcast of regular courses beginning in the spring of 1999. The site now includes over 100 full courses available through streaming RealMedia video, streaming audio, MP3 download, and podcast, with availability of these different options varying by course and event.
