The Oxford University Physics Society (PhysSoc) is a student society that exists to promote and encourage an interest in Physics in and around Oxford University. We host talks most weeks during termtime in the Physics Department, often by leading experts and also hold social events which are a great opportunity to get to know others with an interest in all things Physics.
