Tracee Walker Gilbert,;condensed matter physicist, movie science consultant, and author of “The Physics of Superheroes”; a physicist entrepreneur who founded her own consulting company; and SPS Intern
Elon Price, who created an awesome video and poster about physics careers this summer.
- Data highlighting the
LSA
T scores of physics students compared with other majors,
and employment and salary information for physics BS grads.
- Information about the Conferences for Undergraduate Women in Physics (CUWiP),
APS Webinars, and the APS Professional Guidebook.
- Information on Monte Carlo simulations, the physics behind cooking the perfect pancake, and new flying microbots being developed for exciting new applications!
