Bringing together students, faculty, researchers, alumni, and partners, UO Olympic Studies Week highlights the university’s growing role in Olympic-related research, teaching, and industry engagement—from sport business and marketing to history, policy, and international collaboration.

The Olympic spirit is woven into the DNA of the University of Oregon. UO Olympic Studies Week showcases how that spirit shapes the university's approach to sports, scholarship, and global engagement. During the week, some activities are designed specifically for UO students and academic audiences, while others are open to the public and offer a chance to engage directly with the university’s Olympic legacy and community.
