Welcome to the PERCoGS (Physics Education Research Consortium of Graduate Students) Homepage!
This website provides graduate students in physics education research and related fields to the information they need to be “in the know.” Here you can find PERCoGS Quarterly Newsletters, PER Graduate Student Social Media Channels, and many other resources for Professional Development, Networking, and more!
What is PERCoGS?
PERCoGS are the representatives of graduate students in physics education research. PERCoGS is made up of its 4 elected members as well as graduate students who are on AAPT and GPER committees and wish to be PERCoGS members. PERCoGS' primary aim is to create and manage structures that help PER graduate students to stay connected and to prepare graduate students to fully participate in the PER community when they graduate.
