The Duke Optical Student Chapter (DOSC) is a Duke Student organization interested in research in optics and photonics. They are officially affiliated as a student chapter with SPIE and OPTICA (formerly OSA), two professional societies dedicated to optics and photonics. Their affiliation with these societies along with the Fitzpatrick Institute for Photonics at Duke provides them with funding and resources that allows them to engage in many activities related to the exploration and promotion of optical sciences. Here are some of the things that they do:
- Professional networking events on campus and at conferences
- Outreach programs to local schools
- Support optics-related extracurricular projects
- Interact with visiting professors in small groups
- Assist with FIP breakfast poster sessions
- To see more about these opportunites, goto DOSC Seminar presentation (2019).
