TOMORROW, Wed. March 6th, from 5pm-6pm, the Society of Physics Students (SPS) will be hosting a student research panel in Corcoran 101. We will have panelists who are current seniors in the Physics department discus and answer questions about how they got involved in research, and how they turned their research involvement into their Senior Capstone project. Our panel represents many different kinds of physics research! Astrophysics, nuclear, computational, biophysics, pedagogy, and they also represent a wide array of project types! Some work across departments, or with personal outside GW; some are highly experimental and some highly theoretical. We will also have faculty advisors present to answer questions, and some light refreshments for your enjoyment after the panel.
