Collaborative Research: Conference for Undergraduate Women in Physics

该奖项支持在南加州大学（USC）、伊利诺伊大学厄巴纳-香槟分校（伊利诺伊州）和耶鲁大学同时举行三场会议的会议请求。这些会议针对的是主修物理学的本科女生，有几个目标：培养一种鼓励和支持女性在物理学高等教育中追求和成功的本科文化;让年轻女性有信心、动力和资源申请研究生院并成功完成博士学位。在物理学方面;并加强全国物理学领域的妇女网络。会议将仿照2008年在耶鲁大学、南加州大学和密歇根州举行的区域会议，而区域会议又是从2006年和2007年在南加州大学举行的两次全国会议演变而来的。该奖项由物理学部和天文科学部支持。

This award supports a conference request to hold three simultaneous conferences at the University of Southern California (USC), University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (Illinois), and Yale. The conferences are aimed at undergraduate women majoring in physics and have several goals: to foster an undergraduate culture in which women are encouraged and supported to pursue and succeed in higher education in physics; to give young women the confidence, motivation, and resources to apply to graduate school and successfully complete a Ph.D. in physics; and to strengthen the network of women in physics nationally. The conference will be modeled after regional conferences in 2008 at Yale, USC, and Michigan, which in turn evolved from two previous national conferences held at USC in 2006 and 2007. This award is supported by the Division of Physics and the Division of Astronomical Sciences.
