We as OSCT organize various events in collaboration with different parties, such as the UT Digital Competence Centre (DCC) and Saxion Research Services (SRS). These events last approximately 60 minutes and cover a variety of topics, and are open to all. The goals of these events are to:
- provide a space to discuss topics in the context of Open Science,
- encourage regular consideration of Open Science, and
- present current developments that people at UT and Saxion University should be aware of.
These events also aim to help people to get to know each other better, also across departments.
As the OSCT is a bottom-up community, you also have power over the events' topics. So please feel free to suggest any topics you would like to discuss and share your ideas. Simply fill out the form and tell us about your idea. The same applies to the monthly newsletter to which you can also contribute.
We look forward to seeing you at one of the upcoming events ;)

Member initiatives
Contributions from the community are key to the success of our OSCT. We consequently strongly encourage our members to initiate and organize their own events related to Open Science, e.g., workshops and hackathons. Member initiatives will be announced on this website and promoted through social media. If you have an idea in mind, please send us a message.
