APS CUWiPs are three-day regional conferences at multiple sites across the U.S. and Canada, and are designed to increase the recruitment and retention of undergraduate women in physics. The 2019 APS CUWiPs will be held at twelve universities during January 18 - 20. The conferences will provide great opportunities for women in physics to network, as well as learn from scientific presentations, panel discussions, graduate school fairs, and career expos! Applications are open September 3 - October 12 at the CUWiP page.
If you are interested in applying to be a host site for our 2020 conferences, please visit the CUWiP Host page and submit an application form by November 1. Email women@aps.org for more information.
With support from the National Science Foundation and the APS Division of Fluid Dynamics (DFD), APS will offer a Professional Skills Development Workshop in conjunction with the 2018 Annual DFD Meeting in Atlanta, GA. The workshop is open to women postdocs and early career women physicists and is designed to provide professional training in effective negotiation and communication skills, as well as a special opportunity for networking. For more information and to register, please visit the DFD 2018 Events page.
Join the nation’s largest meeting dedicated to the education of future physics teachers. The 2019 PhysTEC Conference will be held at the Westin Boston Waterfront Hotel in Boston, MA, March 2nd and 3rd. It will feature a special workshop entitled ‘Get the Facts Out,’ a toolkit for recruiting physics teachers, and much more!. Find out more at the PhysTEC website.
