I was lucky enough to help organise CUWiP2022 last year with the wonderful @muellenbroich and @SarahCroke1 and see for myself what a difference it can make. I thoroughly recommend applying to attend if you can! @PhysicsStrath @StrathPhysics
Thinking about your future in physics can be scary - so focus on the next 2 months.....Apply now to attend CUWiP 2023 at the end of March!
Careers and ideas with a pinch of physics!

Reaching out to all previous attendees, speakers and organisers of @CUWiPUK.
What did you get out of attending your version??
@IOPDiversity @StrathPhysWiSPA @GlasgowWiP @oxphys_gen @OxfordPhysics @PhysicsatYork @AstroPhysSoton
The application form takes about 10 mins.
Just let us know what you hope to get out of attending this (pretty much fully funded) Physics conference in your personal statement.

We are back with an in-person SCOPE event!
Have you recently started your PhD and would like to hear practical tips from seasoned veterans (final year students and supervisors)? Make sure to join us for this casual seminar - there will be snacks as well! 🍕

Over 14 companies, learned societies and organisations were represented by brilliant women and nonbinary scientists who introduced their work, sector or industry.

CUWiP is an annual conference to improve confidence, self-concept, and sense of belonging in undergraduate women and nonbinary physics students @chrischirp talks about and encourage them to persist with further studies and careers in physics.

I only realise now how much I associated industry fairs at conferences mostly with men in suits. As part of the @CUWiPUK conference for undergraduate women and nonbinary physicists, we organised a job fair to showcase the wide spectrum of fascinating jobs available with #Physics

This point raised by @chrischirp resonates strongly with me. The highly skilled technical workforce in STEM subjects desperately needs more women and nonbinary scientists. I have been to my fair share of women-only academic panels and workshops. A 🧵.
Also likely that physics A-level choice in girls is related to careers - that the careers they see with physics/maths degrees are less appealing. While you do need maths to study e.g. Medicine, you don't need physics.

With the upcoming premiere of @DragScience here's a key and crucial reason that you should support LGBTQ+ people in STEM spaces (other than just being a decent human)🏳️🌈:
You cannot be what you do not see.

Diverse webinar series with a fantastic line-up of accessible physics talks given by inspirational speakers. Such a refreshing initiative by @tigerinstemm. Opening talk of the series by the one and only @jesswade on chiral materials chaired by @gailmcconnell. See you there!
The first webinar of the TIGER in STEM series will be presented by Dr Jess Wade @jesswade, 4-5pm (BST) on the 6th of August.
