From Duke Medical Physics:
We appreciate if you would forward this message to your senior graduating class, so that we may introduce them to exciting opportunities at the intersection of science and medicine.
Medical physics offers careers that bring together the elegance of physics, precision of math, and innovation of engineering, all to elevate medical science and patient care. Our illustrious alumni have been successful in many professions, be it academic research, government service, industry innovation, or clinical practice.
We are offering a virtual networking event on Friday November 8, 2024, 3:00-4:15 PM EST (UTC-5). More than an info session, this is your ticket to a new world where theoretical concepts meet practical applications. Learn more and register in advance here.
🚀 Embark on a Journey of Discovery!
Before the event, browse our website medicalphysics.duke.edu to see if Duke medical physics is the right choice for you. Witness our program come alive in a playlist of short films at vimeo.com/showcase/9267175 where you can glimpse our state-of-the-art facilities, groundbreaking research, distinguished alumni, and vibrant community that pulses with joy and camaraderie.
The Society of Physics Students is excited to announce the opportunity to apply for the Marian H. Rose Research Scholarship, which awards $15,000 annually to one female-identifying graduate student conducting research in the physical sciences. This scholarship, administered by the Sigma Pi Sigma (SPS) and funded by the Heineman Foundation, honors Dr. Marian H. Rose, a career plasma physicist and passionate advocate for women in science.
If you are a female or female-identifying early-career graduate student studying physics or a related field and are pursuing research in climate or environmental sciences, this scholarship could help you overcome barriers and further your research career.
This scholarship is an incredible opportunity to gain financial support and recognition for your research. Don't miss out—apply by November 15!
Caltech's commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion is but one manifestation of our commitment to institutional excellence. Diversity is essential to achieving and maintaining scientific excellence.
The WAVE Fellows program supports this goal by increasing visibility and accessibility to Caltech's PhD programs to undergraduates in STEM fields who are seriously considering attending graduate school. WAVE Fellows is a 10-week undergraduate research program that provides robust programming in the areas of academic and professional development.
Eligibility: Students must be current sophomores through non-graduating seniors and must be U.S. citizens, U.S. permanent residents, or students with DACA status. A minimum GPA of 3.4 is required.
Competitive applicants will have completed sophomore-level courses in desired research field, have demonstrated through academic and/or co-curricular activities a passion for research, and can articulate how their research interests align with Caltech's research areas. The most competitive applicants will have prior research experience.
Support: WAVE Fellows will receive a $6,000 award for the 10-week period, plus campus housing and a dining and travel supplement of ~$1,000.
Application: Online applications are due January10, 2025.
Program information sessions will be held throughout November. Register now!

Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility (Jefferson Lab) in Newport News, with funding from the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science, encourages undergraduate students to apply for the Science Undergraduate Laboratory Internships (SULI) program to participate in research opportunities in accelerator physics and nuclear physics, engineering, computer science, and mathematics.
The goals of Jefferson Lab's SULI program include encouraging and preparing students to pursue graduate school for advanced degrees in experimental/theoretical physics and accelerator science.
Students will contribute to the lab's science program by working on projects under the supervision of Lab scientists, engineers, and users. In some cases students will be co-authors on resulting publications.
For more information, see https://education.jlab.org/suli/
Applications for the 2025 Ole Miss Nanoengineering Summer REU Program will open in November 2024 and will be due by February 15, 2025. For more information:
On Saturday, October 5, 2024, Caltech will kickoff their 5th annual virtual FUTURE Ignited program.
Caltech recognizes that the diversity of background, experience, and thought is essential to achieving and maintaining scientific excellence. The FUTURE Ignited program is designed to support and encourage aspiring graduate students by providing the opportunity to learn more about graduate programs at Caltech and, more broadly, the graduate school admissions process.
