Minority Physicists Link Page

It is estimated that there are approximately 300 to 400 African and African-American Physicists in the world. Numbers are even smaller for Hispanics and Native Americans in Physics.

In my own experiences as a undergraduate physics major [many years ago :-)], I never met an African-American Ph.D. physicists until my junior year in college.

This web site will be an evolving set of pages that will attempt to provide links that highlight the diversity of people that work in physics today. Please feel free to send me any questions or comments that you have about this page.

Sites which highlight minority physicists

• Physicists of the African Diaspora - Prof. Scott Williams (Univ. of Buffalo)
  • An award winning site that also contains links for Mathematicians and Computer Scientists
    
• The National Society of Black Physicists (NSBP)
  • Also a link to the NSBP/Lawrence Livermore Scholarship Program
    
• The National Society of Hispanic Physicists (NSHP)
  
• National Association for Black Geologists and Geophysicists (NABGG)
  
• American Physical Society's - Committee on Minorities (COM)
  
• National Conference of Black Physics Students (NCBPS) - Beth Brown's links to past conferences.
