This website provides graduate students in physics education research and related fields to the information they need to be “in the know.” Here you can find PERCoGS Quarterly Newsletters, PER Graduate Student Social Media Channels, and many other resources for Professional Development, Networking, and more!
PERCoGS are the representatives of graduate students in physics education research. PERCoGS is made up of graduate students who work in PER and wish to be PERCoGS members. PERCoGS officers include the PERLOC graduate student representative, the GPER Exec grad student representative, and any PER graduate student interested in helping in a formal sense
The PERCoGS Discord Community is real and active (July 2026)! Join us now!
Please fill out the survey below if you are a graduate student in PER. If you are not a graduate student in PER, please do not fill it out (but feel free to send this along to graduate students that you know)
This is a survey created by the PERCoGS officers (Pachi Her, Jason Tran, and Idris Malik), a graduate student organization associated with the American Physical Society (APS) and American Association of Physics Teachers (AAPT). The PERCoGS officers would like to learn more about the current experiences and thoughts of graduate students in PER to help provide the experiences and resources you need. We may share some information or trends seen from the survey responses with PERLOC, GPER Executives, or the broader PER community in an aggregate or anonymous sense.
Note: This is not a formal research survey and will not be used for any research purposes.
This survey is estimated to take 15-25 minutes to complete. We appreciate you taking the time to answer these questions. If there are any questions you feel uncomfortable answering, please feel free to skip them!
