This award supports a conference request to hold three simultaneous conferences at the University of Southern California (USC), University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (Illinois), and Yale. The conferences are aimed at undergraduate women majoring in physics and have several goals: to foster an undergraduate culture in which women are encouraged and supported to pursue and succeed in higher education in physics; to give young women the confidence, motivation, and resources to apply to graduate school and successfully complete a Ph.D. in physics; and to strengthen the network of women in physics nationally. The conference will be modeled after regional conferences in 2008 at Yale, USC, and Michigan, which in turn evolved from two previous national conferences held at USC in 2006 and 2007. This award is supported by the Division of Physics and the Division of Astronomical Sciences.

该奖项支持会议请求，要求在南加州大学（USC），伊利诺伊大学Urbana-Champaign（伊利诺伊州）和耶鲁大学举行三场同时举行会议。这些会议旨在旨在在物理学领域主修的本科妇女，并有几个目标：培养一种鼓励和支持妇女在物理学高等教育中获得和成功的妇女的本科文化；使年轻妇女有信心，动力和资源，以申请研究生院并成功完成博士学位。物理学；并在全国范围内加强妇女网络。该会议将以2008年在耶鲁大学，南加州大学和密歇根州的区域会议为基础的模型，而耶鲁大学和密歇根州则是从2006年和2007年在南加州大学举行的两个国家会议演变而来的。该奖项得到了物理学和天文学科学司的支持。
