AAPT Graduates
We salute the Class of 2009 AAPT student members and their teachers!
The Class of 2009's future contributions to the field of physics and physics education will be built on the intellectual foundation laid by their creative and dedicated AAPT educators.
Class of 2009 - A Class of Excellence
These AAPT student members have already demonstrated extraordinary aptitude and keen interest in mastering the discipline of physics.
Many of those listed here have ranked among the top finalists of the Physics Olympiad, the Physics Bowl, or the International Science and Engineering Fair. Others have been nominated as an Outstanding High School Physics Student by their teachers.
Or, in the case of college and university students, they have been nominated by their department chair as an Outstanding Teaching Assistant. Others are active participants in the Society of Physics Students.
Mold the Future with AAPT
AAPT, with the generous support of individual tax-deductible donations, is able to host these challenging student contests and recognition programs. Plus, AAPT offers the discounted student rate for up to three years beyond graduation to help these students transition into their careers!
We invite you to help us help physics and physics education.
