IOP university student community

IOP university student community The IOP Student Community supports physics and related students and societies across the UK and Irel For further information contact [email protected].

This community brings together physics and astronomy students throughout the UK and Ireland, to connect and support each other, promoting physics in society. We work with student volunteers to host activities and events that are relevant to physics and related students. Together we host annual trips conferences, society forums and various joint events with IAPS, such as PLANCKS competition, or IAP

S4SPACE. Additionally, each year students host CAPS, the annual Conference for Astronomy & Physics Students, held at a different university each year. Affiliated Societies

The IOP is proud to be able to support the work of university student physics and astronomy societies throughout the UK and Ireland. Each year, we affiliate with dozens of physics and related societies, connecting them to each other, promoting fun and developmental activities, and supporting their events with funding, resources and speakers. Societies receive a £150 affiliation grant automatically, and can apply for additional funding up to £1000. If your society wants to promote events on our page - message us! IOP Campus Ambassadors

IOP Campus Ambassadors inspire others to share their passion for physics and get involved outside the lab. They organise events and promote IOP activities, developing relationships on campus and promoting collaboration wherever possible. In doing so, they highlight the support that students receive through membership of the IOP.

The Physics Benevolent Fund – helping PhD students ease the stress of financial hardship

The Physics Benevolent Fund exists to offer financial help during tough times – including COVID-19 – and can assist individuals and their dependants hit by financial worries and difficulties brought on by a range of factors including the loss of a job, illness or to provide support for issues during PhD study. This can include help with costs arising from travel to international research institutions, conferences or for visits to other researchers relevant to PhD studies where no other financial support is available.

Further details can be found on the IOP website including how to apply.

Find out more about the independent charity that offers financial support to IOP members facing hardship.

Who is brave enough to try the egg challenge?!

IOP has launched a TikTok challenge to engage new audiences in the Limit Less campaign

1. Record a video of yourself (or your friends) walking on eggs – hopefully successfully!
2. Provide a very brief explanation of how this is possible and that it is explained by physics
3. Challenge others to do the same and use the hashtag
4. Post the video with the hashtags and
5. Share the explanation at standoneggs.iop.org as a pinned reply to the video

Have you ever tried walking on eggs? Take part in this fun physics challenge
