OUR ACTIVITIES
The ISCP conference is organized annually by the Romanian SPIE Student Chapter. The aim of ISCP is to offer an opportunity of students and young researchers to promote their recent obtained results, as well as to enhance their knowledge in laser physics, material science and different laser applications.
We encouraged undergraduate and graduate students, PhD students and young researchers to contribute with oral and poster presentations at ISCP. In order to help students to attend the conference, our Chapter in collaboration with the Faculty of Physics, University of Bucharest, offered grants for students, who expressed the desire to participate at ISCP.
In the same time, the involvement of young researchers in organizing the conference helped them to gain management skills, innovative and constructive thinking.
The Institute for Atomics Physics Chapter is active in creating awareness and popularization of Optics in Romanian schools, universities and educational fairs. Besides recruiting new members, our Chapter organizes outreach activities including
1) Promoting optics by developing workshops, volunteering programmes and supplementing science education;
2) Organizing seminaries, laboratory visits and interactive communications with undergraduate students;
3) Maintaining close relations, exchanging experiences and planning scientific activities with other SPIE Chapters around the world;
Student Chapter Leadership Workshop
One memeber of the Chapter participates each year, in August, at the SPIE Optics & Photonics Conference and Student Leadership Training Workshop in San Diego, USA. The participation is possible thanks to Officer Travel Grant received from SPIE Society.
During the Student Chapter Leadership Workshop , the following topics are discussed: intercultural communication, leadership skills development, etc and the collaboration between SPIE Student Chapters.
A poster with our Chapter activities is presented during the Chapter presentation poster session, promoting the Romanian Chapter.
