SCEC’s working groups, workshops, field activities, and annual meetings enable scientists to collaborate over sustained periods, building strong interpersonal networks that promote intellectual exchange and mutual support.
SCEC envisions a future where California is resilient to earthquakes. We engage a diverse community of scientists and students to develop innovative ways to study and understand earthquake hazards. SCEC fosters collaboration among academia, government, industry, and community-based organizations to translate this knowledge into actions that protect lives and livelihoods. Engaging students, early-career researchers, and broadening participation are key priorities for the Center.
SAVE THE DATES FOR THE NEXT SCEC ANNUAL MEETING
The SCEC Annual Meeting brings together 400-500 participants worldwide to share breakthroughs, assess progress, and chart a collaborative path for earthquake science. Through plenary sessions, posters, workshops, and field trips, all of the Center activities are presented, analyzed, and woven into a set of priorities for SCEC to pursue in the coming year and beyond.
Participants include SCEC project teams, leadership, advisory groups, and staff, as well as sponsors and partners who fund Center activities. Researchers working on topics relevant to SCEC priorities and initiatives are encouraged to engage with SCEC at the annual meeting.
Early career scientists, graduate students, and undergraduate interns typically make up more than 40% of participants at the annual meetings.
Sustained interactions within the SCEC community and with other communities that interface with the Center are essential for advancing earthquake science and engineering, and preparedness planning. SCEC fosters these interactions through activities such as technical activity groups, workshops, field activities, skills training, and preparedness events.
Science Workshops
Focused workshops in areas highlighted in the SCEC Science Plan, which may include field trips to key sites.
Research Skills Trainings
Training researchers to develop the skills needed to engage in the earthquake science collaboration.
Mentoring Workshops
Empower the next generation of researchers, boost your own research, and learn how to build diverse teams.
Preparedness Events
Engaging communities to build awareness of earthquake hazards and preparedness planning.
The Statewide California Earthquake Center (SCEC) fosters a diverse and inclusive community where everyone feels safe, productive, and welcome. We expect all participants in SCEC-supported events to uphold this commitment by adhering to the SCEC Activities Code of Conduct.
