<b>9th Grade Program</b></span> </p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 12pt;"><span>In 1990, two faculty members discussed that there
was nothing available to interest girls in physics. They applied to the
National Science Foundation for funding and from there, the Physics
Department Summer Girls Outreach Program was created. The program started
with one, two-week program session and has grown to two, two-week, sessions.
The program will run daily from 8:30 – 4PM. In the mornings, attendees
listen to lectures, participate in demos, write in journals and complete
hands on experiments from a lab manual. At the end of the two-week
program, we invite parents, teachers and siblings to a closing ceremony
where Summer Girls present their favorite demonstrations.<br>
<br>
Session I: July 05, 2011 - July 15, 2011<br>
Session II: July 18, 2011-July 29, 2011<br>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 12pt;"><span><br>
After increased popularity and demand for the Summer Outreach Program for
rising 9th grade girls, the program is being extended to rising 11th
grade girls. While the 9th grade program focuses on traditional physics,
the 11th grade program will jump into the world of modern physics. The
program will run daily from 9 – 3. In the mornings, the girls will be
introduced to the exciting world of modern physics. They will learn about
Relativity, Antimatter, Quantum Mechanics, Physical Uncertainty, Quantum
Computing and more. The afternoons will be filled with hands-on lab
activities, visits to labs working ion modern physics, discussions with
professors currently doing work in modern physics and a project to make
our discussions of modern topics tangible. Students will be introduced to
topics that they will likely not be offered in their high school classes,
from the thought experiments of Einstein to current applications in code
breaking. <br>
