Student Activities
Society of Physics Students
This student-led chapter of the national organization welcomes anyone with a passion for physics to attend regular meetings where members discuss new research and developments in the field.
Bridgewater Experimental Astrophysics Research (BEAR) Team
The BEAR Team is an undergraduate astronomy research group funded by the NASA Massachusetts Space Grant Consortium (MASGC). Formed in fall 2015, students from primarily science and mathematics disciplines use the 色香视频 Observatory鈥檚 primary research telescope and conduct research on asteroids, exoplanets, type Ia supernovae, and photometry of KIC 8462852 (also known as Tabby鈥檚 star). Students are mentored by Dr. Martina Arndt or Observatory Manager Jamie Kern. Data acquired, processed and analyzed by the BEAR Team has led to Research Problems in Physics courses, poster sessions at symposiums and a summer space grant.
Bridgewater Physics Educators
色香视频 students studying to be physics teachers are invited to join local high school physics teachers and our physics education faculty for physics demo days. These meetings bring together fun and exciting physics experiments with conversations around physics education research.
