UC Davis Chapter

The Majority of students in Optics Club are majoring in Optical Science and Engineering. We are studying under the Department of Applied Science in the University of California, Davis. Optical Science and Engineering majors are prepared in fields such as telecommunications, lasers, spectroscopy, biophotonics and lots more. In addition, the low student-to-staff ratio provides Optical Engineers with plenty of research opportunities and personal attention.

Members of the Optics Club have the opportunity to attend events and conferences, speak with students in local high schools and colleges about Optics, network (and even have lunch!) with engineers in optics-related fields, and work on various Optics-related projects.
