2025 Annual Conference

Dear AUA colleagues,

On behalf of the Program Committee, the University of Oregon and Oregon State University are pleased to be hosting the 70th annual gathering of the AUA. The dates of the conference are June 22, - 26, 2024. While we are fierce rivals in athletic competitions, we partner on many initiatives. That partnership gave rise to our theme this year of “Community through Collaboration”.

University of Oregon and Oregon State University, begun in 1876 and 1858 respectively, currently enroll over 60,000 students from all across Oregon, the USA, and the world. Together they conduct more than $660 million in sponsored research.

The Program Committee is hard at work to create an exciting and stimulating series of conversations related to our theme. They are developing themes for each day and working with our committee chairs to align their content with the themes.

There is much to see in Oregon while you are out here. The Pacific Ocean is just over an hour to the west. There are miles of dunes where you can perfect your sand surfing skills or race over them in specially outfitted dune buggies. The Cascade mountains are an hour to the east. There are multiple trails and hikes (many including waterfalls) from the easy to the adventurous. And don’t forget the award-winning wineries of the Willamette Valley - too numerous to count!

To preview the conference and the many attractions of western Oregon, watch our Welcome to Oregon video.

 We can’t wait to see you in June 2025!
