The interdisciplinary field of biomedical optics is a potential career choice for students with various educational backgrounds. Despite this, the field of biomedical optics education remains it in infancy. Having recognized the lack of data regarding the causes of lack of awareness of the field, we seek to understand where interventions need to be made to increase access to biomedical optics education. To that end, we have distributed a survey to those in biomedical optics to determine their path to awareness of this field. We present the results of this survey and make recommendations for future biomedical optics outreach initiatives.
