Our award programs provide scholarships, research and travel grants, and outreach awards for both individuals and chapters. SPS awards are generously funded by donations from Sigma Pi Sigma members, and friends and alumni of SPS.

Student awards recognize outstanding achievements by undergraduates in the physical sciences. These awards provide travel funding for students attending professional society meetings.
Awards for Chapters

Awards for Faculty and Alumni
Faculty and alumni awards recognize the service to the discipline of physics and astronomy.
Scholarships
Pursing a bachelors degree is a big financial commitment and we at SPS are excited and committed to providing funding to alleviate some of the costs. These awards are made to undergraduate physics and astronomy students on the basis of scholarship, SPS participation, and additional criteria.
Washington D.C. Internships
The SPS summer internship program places undergraduate physics and astronomy students in organizations that utilize their knowledge, experience, and energy to advance meaningful assignments and enhance the physics industry.
