菲斯克大学物理系将于2004年2月5日至8日在田纳西州诺克斯维尔的菲斯克大学举办一次全国黑人物理学生会议。 这将是第18届这样的年度会议。 会议的目标是增加物理学的多样性。 重点是提供本科物理专业和研究生的刺激，动机和实践技能，以进一步他们的教育，以及促进进入和生产力的科学和技术专业。 作为会议的一部分，将提供许多技术讲座，学生将有一些先进的物理问题解决的课程。 学生将与大学教师和研究人员举行非正式会议，从专业角度为他们提供物理学观点。 提供资金以支付学生参与的费用。 物理学和相关领域的许多子领域将被代表。 约200名学生将参加。

The Department of Physics at Fisk University will host a National Conference of Black Physics Students February 5-8, 2004 at Fisk University in Knoxville, TN. This will be the 18th such annual Conference. The goal of the meeting is to increase the diversity of physics. The focus is on providing undergraduate physics majors and graduate students stimulation, motivation, and practical skills to further their education, as well as foster entry into and productivity in the scientific and technical professions. As part of the meetings, numerous technical talks will be given, and students will have some course work in advanced physics problem solving. Students will have informal meetings with university faculty and researchers, as well, to provide them with a view of physics from the professional perspective. Funds are provided to cover the costs of student participation. Many subfields of physics and related fields are to be represented. Approximately 200 students will attend.
