AIP Student Careers Night

The Australian Institute of Physics Victorian branch in collaboration with physics student societies from universities from around Melbourne to organise the 2018 AIP Careers Night. This event is aimed at giving Australian university physics students the opportunity to interact with employers and professionals in physics, from both academia and industry.

The event will include panel discussions from physicists Helen Maynard-Casley, Tom Payten, Amanda Perdomo and Daniel Langley. During these panel discussions, attendees will learn about these speakers journey from university physics to their current careers. Following these panel discussions attendees will be able to mingle with physicists from industry and academia whilst enjoying canapes.

All students are required to be members of the Australian Institute of Physics, which is free and can be completed here: http://aip.org.au/joining-the-aip/

Business Attire is recommended for all attendees.

Please note tickets are subject to availability.

The Inter-University Committee which is organising this Careers Night is committed to a creating an event that reflects and speaks to the diversity of our community. We believe that a successful careers night can only be run by listening to a wide range of voices across many different experiences. We're listening to our supporting organisations, particularly the AIP, to try to bring a diverse balance across many aspects of the event.

Please be advised that this event is aimed at physics students who are further along in their studies, generally above 2nd year, and including honours students.

This event is bought to you by the Australian Institute of Physics, in collaboration with La Trobe University Physics Society, Swinburne University Physics Club, the University of Melbourne Physics Students Society, and Monash University's Society of Physics, Astronomy and Mathematics, and RMIT Physics Students Association.

In organising this event, we would like to thank our sponsors including the Australian Institute of Physics, the Australian Synchrotron, FLEET, Teach for Australia, Coherent Scientific, Warsash Scientific, IOP Publishing, Cosmos Magazine, the Department of Chemistry and Physics La Trobe University, and the School of Physics and Astronomy Monash University.
