University of Oregon Cybersecurity Club (UOSEC)

Visualization Lab, Allan Price Science Commons (PSC B006), University of Oregon, Eugene · In the city

Fall 2026: Thursdays 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. (public club) and Tuesdays 5:30 to 7:00 p.m. (competitive practice), through December 3, 2026; no Thursday meeting on November 26. The club's live calendar is the source for room or time changes.

Student club. The site calls the Thursday session a public club with an open room and says to drop by a meeting, but it does not say whether people outside the university may attend, and it states no dues. The October 8, 2026 meeting (Docker Security, speaker joined by Zoom) is described in a recap posted October 10, 2026. The fall schedule also lists a topic night on October 22 (BSidesPDX prep) and an OCRS invite session on November 19 in PSC B040. No winter or spring schedule is published.
