Membership in the Stanford Photonics Research Center is available to companies interested in establishing mutually-beneficial relationships with the Stanford photonics community. Membership fees directly support research and teaching in photonics at Stanford; in turn, members gain facilitated access to Stanford photonics students, faculty, and current and emerging areas of research at Stanford.
Senior Membership Level
In addition to the basic benefits available to all members, Senior Members may participate in multiple SPRC Working Groups, may have one representative on the SPRC Advisory Board, and may elect to allocate research funds (a portion of the membership fee) to multiple Stanford photonics faculty/researchers in accordance with SPRC Advisory Board and University policy.
Standard Membership Level
In addition to the basic benefits available to all members, Standard Members may participate in a single SPRC Working Group, and may elect to allocate research funds (a portion of the membership fee) to a single Stanford photonics faculty/researcher in accordance with SPRC Advisory Board and University policy.
Introduction Membership Level
The introductory membership level is provided to companies and organizations who prefer to spend their first membership year getting better acquainted with the research activities at Stanford University prior to supporting a specific SPRC investigator or Faculty Working Group. The membership fee at this level supports SPRC workshops, the annual symposium, seminar series, and other center events. The Introductory level requires a minimum 2-year membership commitment, with the second and following years at either the Standard or Senior level.
