PhysCon2016 on Windows Pc

Get the official app for the 2016 Quadrennial Physics Congress (PhysCon)! PhysCon brings together physics students, alumni, and faculty members for three days of frontier physics, interactive professional development workshops, poster sessions, and networking. It is the largest gathering of undergraduate physics students in the world! Hosted by Sigma Pi Sigma, the physics honor society, anyone interested in physics is invited to attend.

PhysCon 2016 will build on the energy and enthusiasm of the 2012 Congress with an anticipated 1200 participants exploring the theme “Unifying Fields: Science Driving Innovation,” in the Silicon Valley, CA area. This meeting happens just once every four years, and presents unique opportunities for attendees to:

• Bond with fellow physics students from across the United States and beyond.
• Explore graduate programs, summer research opportunities, and workforce options.
• Be inspired by renowned physicists and tours of labs at the forefront of science and technology.
• Grow professionally through workshops on communication, inclusion, and leadership.
• Expand their understanding of physics and its variety of applications.
• Present their research to fellow students, potential graduate school advisors, and potential employers.
