The OPTICA Student Chapter is dedicated to providing its members with opportunities for professional networking, career development, and technical programming. Our chapter fosters a vibrant and supportive community by organizing monthly social gatherings and formal dinners to encourage engagement and collaboration among members. We actively promote the field of optics and photonics through both academic and social activities at Princeton University.

Our chapter is committed to professional growth by supporting student membership in OPTICA, organizing visits to regional institutions for lab tours and networking. Through these activities, we aim to build meaningful connections within the broader optics community.

This organization is open to all Princeton University students interested in supporting our organization’s mission, regardless of identity, such as race, sex, ethnicity, national origin, or other protected characteristics.
