Women in Physics and Astronomy at UBC:
The University of British Columbia’s Department of Physics and Astronomy will be hosting an orientation event for women interested in learning information about the undergraduate programs in physics and astronomy. We would like to invite female high school juniors and seniors who have shown curiosity in their science classes to attend this event. We think it is useful to familiarize students with our department and degrees before they register for first year courses. This free event will inform participants about the wide range of undergraduate programs offered by UBC’s Department of Physics and Astronomy, and includes a Q&A session with a panel of women who have graduated with degrees in physics and astronomy, and tours of several research labs on campus. We hope to impress upon the participants the diversity of career options open to physics graduates, as well as the scope of multidisciplinary research conducted in our department. By attending WOW: Welcome Orientation for Women, we hope that female students will feel comfortable and welcomed into Physics and Astronomy. Date: TBA Time: 11am – 4:30 pm (free lunch included) Location: Michael Smith Labs Theater (2185 East Mall), UBC More information and registration (deadline Dec. 19) is available at: [|http://www.phas.ubc.ca/wow]
