The committee is pleased to announce FOSS Game Nights for Semester 2 of 2026.

FOSS Game Nights showcase free, open source games that highlight the best of what the spirit of Open Source has to offer. We encourage everyone to join in the fun as we explore different types of games from various genres. It’s an excellent opportunity to get together and socialise with fellow club members.

Swinux Semester 2 Visual Roadmap

As you can see from the roadmap, it’s jam packed with different events and opportunities for members to interact with their fellow club members, either online, in person or with other clubs!

We’re looking for enthusiastic students to take up the mantle and join the Swinux Committee for the 2026-2027 period, starting October.

If you’re interested in running events and online spaces, hosting social gatherings or persuing academic experiments (an excellent resume booster!) send a message to contact@swinux.org or @swinuxclub via Discord and say hi! Once the committee has a pool of candidates, we will run a short online information session outlining the roles, responsibilities and resources available to the club. This will give you all the resources they need for success in 2027!

We have a special announcement and opportunity for students at Swinburne.

The Swinburne Rover Team are looking for students to join their Autonomous and Ground Control teams.

Your support for this club, your contribution to our spaces and enthusiasm for Linux has meant we’ve been able to continually push for bigger and better events.

We’d like to share just some of the highlights regarding the club throughout the semester:
