The Optics Institute of Southern California was an Orange County-based nonprofit organization dedicated to the promotion of math, science, and engineering education through the use of optics and related technologies and phenomena.

Our educational approach was hands-on, student-centered, and engaging.

We sought to foster the curious scientist, the artful mathematician, and the creative engineer in every student, regardless of age.
