The Optical Society of Southern California holds nine regular meetings, monthly from October through June, as well as a few special events. Most of our meetings and events are open to the public. This page includes a record of our past meetings dating back to 2009-2010 (we are looking for a volunteer to help add the earlier meetings).
Event for the current active period are found on our events page and our events calendar. The events calendar also has other items that may be of interest to OSSC members such as professional conferences and educational events.
Ideas for future meetings may be made to our Programs Chair.
