SOCIS is about getting people involved in space-related software development. As such, we heavily weight our application selection process towards students that are interested in remaining involved in BRL-CAD and space-related open source software development long after SOCIS has ended. | SOCIS is about getting people involved in space-related software development.

Whether or not you are accepted, contributing to open source outside of SOCIS is the best way to be noticed and get your proposal accepted. Keep that in mind. Thanks for your interest and we look forward to working with new BRL-CAD developers! | Whether or not you are accepted, contributing to open source outside of SOCIS is the best way to be noticed and get your proposal accepted.
