The OSPOSIUM will bring together a broad set of scientists, engineers, students, and researchers from across the UT system who use, or are interested in using, open source software to advance their research. This meeting will feature a series of talks and panels highlighting efforts to date and featuring opportunities to collaborate. The event will consist of a full day of presentations with a reception on Wednesday, September 23, followed by a student-focused event, “Open to Work” on Thursday, September 24. This meeting will immediately follow TACCSTER 2026, the two-day annual symposium for Texas-based users of the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC).
To broaden participation in the OSPOSIUM from across the University of Texas System, we are supporting up to ten Travel and Participation Stipends for students. The stipends are intended to cover registration, travel, and accommodation expenses incurred for attending the OSPOSIUM in Austin. Applications are due by July 6, 2026.
