Student Education Programs

OSA regularly hosts one-week, concentrated school programs to provide students opportunities to advance their studies and interact with instructors, local professors and peers. Each school program emphasizes different topics within optics and photonics, but all offer courses from well-known instructors and ample time to network with all participants. Acceptance to these programs is competitive, and graduate students from all institutes, regions and backgrounds are encouraged to apply early. The registration fee covers tuition, room and board and all program materials.
