SPS to me is community. It is those equally determined friends who endure the hardships together to
celebrate the triumphs.

Member Spotlight

To me, the Society of Physics Students (SPS) means a supportive and inclusive family whose purpose is to help you achieve your academic and career goals. Coming from a small primarily undergraduate institution, SPS allowed our majors to connect with the professional physics community and make meaningful connections with people in our field. This organization allowed me to attend my first conference, gain leadership/professional experience, and achieve my dreams of working at NASA as a 2021 SPS Intern. I had the privilege of co-founding our chapter, with my peer Kelli Shar, and serving on the executive board for three consecutive years. The community we have built together through SPS at UT is something I will cherish for the rest of my life, and I aim to foster in the future organizations I am a part of.
