The Graduate Women in Physics (GWiP) is sponsoring a new Mentoring Program for undergraduate and graduate students and post-doctoral researchers.  

The goals of the program are:

1. To develop activities, and to establish one-on-one relationships that promote a sense of community and a support system amongst the women in the physics department at the Ohio State University.

 

2. To provide an outlet for discussion of the following topics:

  • Professional development and career options for a woman in science
  • Insights into the life as a research scientist, graduate student, post-doctoral researcher, faculty member, etc.
  • Balancing research, class work, and a family, social life, or extracurricular activities
  • Information and advice on applying to graduate schools, post-doctoral research positions, industry jobs, fellowships, scholarships, etc. in a one-on-one, as well as group-discussion, format. 

Who will be involved:

  •   Graduate students
  •   Undergraduate students
  •   Postdoctoral researchers

in the physics department and in other mathematical, engineering and physical sciences departments at the Ohio State University.


* This program is open to female and male students
