Assisting physics institutions in implementing positive change for everyone
Request a site visit

APS has a long-standing interest in improving the climate for individuals from all backgrounds and identities in physics departments, national labs, and scientific collaborations. Through working with APS to conduct a site visit, you are proactively taking steps to improve your environment for everyone.

The site visit program is overseen by the Committee on the Status of Women in Physics and the Committee on Minorities in Physics.

Site visits help physics departments and consortia, as well as national and private labs, to take action that will improve their environment for everyone.
