SPS Events
As an organization made up of undergraduates, we try our best to cater our events to other undergraduate physics majors. We host a variety of events such as Industry Networking Night, Graduate School and Path to Professorship Panels – which focus on potential careers in physics (industry or academia related), socials and movie nights – which is allow students to take a break from school related stress, our annual luncheon + meet & greet with prestigious Nobel Laureates, and more!
These events are made to help introduce & integrate undergraduate physics majors to the Physics Department at UCI. We are always open to ideas and suggestions for events!

SPS Calendar
Here is a calendar for our upcoming events during the 2019-2020 academic year.
Seminars & Colloquium
UCI’s Physics & Astronomy Department hosts weekly seminars & colloquium where guest speakers come and talk about their research. It’s a great way to stay updated on what’s going on in the physics research community. We usually announce the seminars in our weekly emails. If you would like to see which ones are coming up, click HERE.
