ETOP 2023 IS OVER! See What It Was All About!
ETOP 2023 will be held in Cocoa Beach, Florida on May 15-18, 2023 (Monday – Thursday). Just 45 minutes from the Orlando International Airport, the host site will be the Hilton Cocoa Beach Oceanfront.
We are planning some special activities in the area as well as a tour of CREOL, The College of Optics and Photonics. Plan on staying the full week so you don’t miss out!
ETOP, Education and Training in Optics and Photonics, is a conference held every two years, that brings together leading optics and photonics educators from all around the world and from all levels and orientations to discuss, demonstrate and learn about new developments and approaches to teaching in these fields.
Through presentations, panel discussions, workshops and exhibits, it is the intent of this conference to inform professors, students, teachers and professional trainers on how to teach optics and photonics for the future.
