The mission of the FoRCE is: Providing free, high-quality outreach events and online seminars in order to reach broader robotics and control engineering communities around the globe. To support our mission, we periodically invite distinguished lecturers to the FoRCE to give talks on recent research and/or education results related to robotics and control engineering. As a consequence, the FoRCE aims in connecting academicians and government/industry researchers/practitioners with each other through crosscutting basic and applied research and education discussions.

Each upcoming FoRCE event (see below) is currently announced through the Guidance, Navigation, and Control Listserv (GNC-L). In order to subscribe to this listserv, simply send an email to listserv@listserv.usf.edu with no text on the subject line but write "subscribe gnc" (without quotation marks) on the body of your email. We also announce the upcoming FoRCE events through the IEEE Control Systems Society E-Letter ahead of time and the ASME Dynamic Systems and Control Division Listserv.

We cordially hope that you will enjoy the FoRCE events and find them highly-valuable to your own research and education interests!
