Want to learn how to get involved in physics research?
Come to the Physics Phestival!
Oxy Physics professors will give short presentations on the research projects they will have available Summer 2025. Current physics students will also share their experiences doing research at Oxy and at other universities and labs.
Please join us at 11:30am in HSC Lab 004 for presentations, followed by a taco lunch from HomeState in HSC 124
Schrödinger's Chats
Schrödinger's Chats are fun and casual gatherings for Oxy students, faculty, and staff to mingle. A safe and welcoming environment to discuss physics, share your favorite physics joke — or drop esoteric physics terminology. Don't worry, you're amongst friends! This event is open to all. Grab your lunch or snack on the light spread of goodies we will have available--You need not be a physics major to join us!
Each Chat includes an informal 10-15 minute presentation on any physics topic of interest to the presenter — or to you!
