In response to the underrepresentation of women in physical science in South Korea, the Women’s Committee of the Korean Physical Society (KPS) was established 15 years ago and has made various efforts to reduce the gender gap in physics. The Women’s Committee of KPS has focused on providing female students various inspiring programs to expand women’s role in the field of physics, including holding an annual physics camp for female high school students, offering a “Visiting Mentoring Program” to female graduate students and postdocs, and rewarding female students for excellent research presentations during KPS meetings. We present the details of the interventions by KPS to address the gender gap in Korean physical science field while sharing our experiences and discussing findings of past work. |
