Open Source Programme Office

An open source programme office is an office which handles an organisation's open source strategy, policy and operations. In a university, it acts as a hub for developers and researchers who want to make open source software, open source research software, open educational materials and more.

We are working towards creating a formal open source programme office for UCL. Since we believe in open development, our draft business case, and all of our talks, proposals, applications (including rejections!) are available to browse.

If you’re from UCL and want to get involved, please email us, or contact the ARC collaborations team via MyServices.
