Visiting Scientists

Now in their seventh year, the AAPT/AIP Visiting Scientists Programs in Physics are expected to result in visits by scientists to some 120 colleges and universities and to 300 high schools during the 1963–64 academic year. Since September 1957, when the first of the programs was inaugurated as a joint activity of the American Institute of Physics and the American Association of Physics Teachers, over 300 distinguished physicists from the United States and abroad have paid visits to approximately 500 institutions of higher learning and 1500 secondary schools.
