Optica Student Chapter & EPS Young Minds Erlangen

Our hbar OMEGA – OPTICA Student Chapter Erlangen and EPS Young Mind Section Erlangen

Our student chapter was officially registered at the Optical Society (now OPTICA) in 2007. Additionally, we lately founded an acknowledged non-profit corporation in order to facilitate financial and legal matters concerning the chapter. The main objectives of the hbar OMEGA are as follows:
- enhancement of the quality of optics and physics student life through the promotion of student community, student education and industrial contact
- promotion of optical science and engineering among the academic and local communities through outreach and educational activities
- strengthening of communication and interaction between students, faculties and administration
- broadening of students’ insight of post-graduate opportunities by connecting our members with leaders from scientific institutions and companies employing physicist and engineers
- social and scientific networking with other OPTICA Student Chapters and EPS Young Mind Sections

We organize a variety of events in order to achieve these objective. For an overview see https://mpl.mpg.de/study-work-or-visit/osa-student-chapter/events/
