Caltech OSA Student Chapter
Welcome to the home of the Caltech OSA Student Chapter.
Founded in 2005, and revived in 2014, the Caltech Student OSA Chapter aims to bring together optics students, engineers, scientists, and researchers in the community to encourage the exchange of ideas and promote awareness in the optical sciences.
The Caltech OSA chapter is supported by OSA and the Graduate student council. We also host coorganized events with the department of Applied Physics and Materials Science.
If you are interested in joining the Caltech OSA chapter, please send an email to one of our current student members.
Join our mailing list to stay up to date with future events.
