Last year, Carissa Giuliano won the award for her research in developing an outreach program on the science of smell.  She will use this money to attend the AAPT meeting thi January.  

Her professional interests are in physics education and she hopes to become a high school physics teacher after Adelphi. She is currently a Junior in our STEP program.

She is also the president of our physics club.  We just got back from a conference that she personally organized sending 21 undergraduate students to a conference.  Here are just some of the highlights:

Carissa and Katie Represent Adelphi Physics at Club Fair At Physcon

Day 1 at PhysCon off to a great start

Here is a picture of her presenting her poster at that conference.  Note she will present the same poster at the AAPT this January.

We would like to thank Mary Klement for funding Carissa’s research. Learn more about the scholarship by clicking here: https://physics.adelphi.edu/scholarships/
