A Year of Celebration, Reflection and Looking Forward
Be a part of it!
OTS' 50th Anniversary
Today marks a momentous occasion in OTS' history. On February 2, 1963, representatives from seven universities met in Miami, FL and signed an agreement to create the Organization for Tropical Studies.

Throughout 2013 we will be reflecting upon and celebrating our strong history as well as looking to identify what is needed for the next 50 years.

We want you to be a part of the celebration!

We have created a website specifically for news regarding events, plans and celebrations of OTS' 50th Anniversary. Below you will find highlights of the information on our 50th Anniversary website. Please feel free to share your thoughts with us and we look forward to having you celebrate with us!
