STEM News Tip: APS Begins Public Engagement Webinar Series

The American Physical Society regularly hosts webinars one a variety of physics-related topics. This month, they begin a new webinar series: Engaging the Public Through Science.

This series is aimed particularly at graduate students and early career physicists, aimed at developing skills and a community of practice around public engagement and science communication.

The first webinar in this series, “Designing Informal Physics Programs: Identifying appropriate methodologies for contextualized research,” will be held May 27.
