Inclusion Resources

The APS Physics initiative has a mission of empowering and supporting physics departments, laboratories, and other organizations to identify and enact strategies for improving equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI). It will do so by establishing a community of transformation.

Fosters a supportive atmosphere within the Society and within the scientific community at large, ultimately encouraging women to pursue rewarding and satisfying careers in acoustics.

The American Physical Society Bridge Program (APS-BP) is an effort to increase the number of physics PhDs awarded to under-represented minority (URM) students, defined by the project as African Americans, Hispanic Americans and Native Americans.

The Committee provide guidance on how the acoustics community can attract and embrace underrepresented groups in acoustics.

Residents of countries identified by the World Bank as developing countries are eligible for reduced OSA individual and student member dues.
