项目摘要

This award supports the Sixth Annual Conference for Undergraduate Women in Physics, a two-day conference for undergraduate women in physics. The conference takes place January 15-16, 2011 simultaneously at the University of Southern California (USC), Purdue University, the North Carolina Research Triangle (NCRT), and MIT. The conference has two overarching goals. The first is to give undergraduate women the resources, motivation, and confidence to apply to graduate school and to successfully complete a Ph.D. in physics or a related discipline. The second is to make undergraduate women in physics more aware of the wide range of career opportunities available to them. Regional conferences are held simultaneously in order to maximize the student attendance by minimizing cross- country travel requirements, to increase the excitement of the participants in the joint venture, and to allow the interactive simulcast of a keynote address. The conference goals are achieved by providing a series of inspiring research talks by women physicists, panel discussions on graduate school and physics careers, student presentation sessions, and ample opportunity for networking and informal mentoring. The success of these goals is measured by surveys given to students before and after the conference, as well as by longitudinal studies following the students' post-graduation paths and comparing them with female student cohorts who did not attend the conference.

该奖项支持第六届物理学本科女性年会，这是一个为期两天的物理学本科女性会议。会议将于2011年1月15日至16日在南加州大学（USC）、普渡大学、北卡罗来纳三角研究中心（NCRT）和麻省理工学院同时举行。这次会议有两个首要目标。第一个目标是为女大学生提供资源、动力和信心，使她们能够申请研究生院，并成功完成物理学或相关学科的博士学位。第二是让物理学专业的女本科生更多地意识到她们有广泛的职业机会。区域会议同时举行，以最大限度地减少跨国家旅行的要求，以最大限度地提高学生的出席率，增加参与者的兴奋感，并允许一个主题演讲的互动同步播放。会议的目标是通过提供女性物理学家的一系列鼓舞人心的研究演讲，研究生院和物理学职业的小组讨论，学生演讲会议，以及充足的网络和非正式指导机会来实现。这些目标的成功是通过在会议前后对学生进行的调查来衡量的，也可以通过跟踪学生毕业后的路径并将其与未参加会议的女学生群体进行比较的纵向研究来衡量的。
