WiLO is a group of students at UCF working to establish community between women in optics and prepare them for post-graduate life.
WiLO is a group of undergraduate and graduate students of CREOL, the College of Optics and Photonics at the University of Central Florida, Orlando. We exist to establish connections between women in optics and related fields, enabling the development of valuable networks of professionals as well as preparedness for post-graduate life. This is done through events such as discussion panels with recent CREOL alumni and local professionals, soft skills seminars, and outreach activities.
