Worlds of Physics
Interested in learning more about different fields of physics? Wondering what you can do with physics besides research? Want to know the difference between working at a national lab or a university?
Then the World of Physics sessions are for you! This is a chance for you to speak informally and in small groups with physicists from academia, government, industry, and more!
The format is informal, so be ready to ask questions and learn about the many career paths you can take in physics!
