This is the public Github organization for the Open Source Program Office, an organization focused on supporting open source efforts at the Georgia Institute of Technology. This new OSPO combines expertise from Georgia Tech’s Center for Scientific Software Engineering Center (CSSE), the Partnership for Advanced Computing Environment (PACE), and Georgia Tech’s Library.

This new OSPO will support a host of activities, including the development of community-driven guidelines for open source software projects on campus, support for faculty-driven open source software projects, workshops and training events targeting both GT students and faculty, and two undergraduate internship programs: one over the summer and another during the school year. The OSPO also plans to support outreach activities outside the GT campus, with a particular focus on faculty and students at institutions in the Atlanta area.
