As in previous editions, this month’s slideshow includes lots of colorful slides on diverse physics careers and topics. Material in this month’s edition includes:
- Profiles of Ramon Barthelemy, physics and astronomy grad student and advocate for underrepresented groups in STEM; Christina Barrow, medical physicist at the Dept. of Veterans Affairs; Deborah Berebichez, financial risk analyst and science outreach superstar; and SPS Intern Brean Prefontaine, who worked on a project about women and African Americans in the sciences.
- Data highlighting the primary areas of employment for physics BS graduates in the private sector, as well as the latest starting salary information for physics bachelors compared to other majors.
- Information about valuable career resources for students, including the APS Online Professional Guidebook; the Vector, a special monthly publication just for undergraduate APS members; and a series of special events just for undergraduate students at the APS March and April Meetings, the Future of Physics Days events.
- Information on the physics behind curing cancer, what happens when fire breaks out in space, and what it takes for fishes to swim their fastest!
A video version of each slideshow is now available on the download for those who are using non-Windows and non-Mac platforms. Simply click the button marked “Download MPEG-4” for the video version, and save it to the desired location.
