The Physics Society of Kenya brings together scientists, educators, and innovators to apply physics for the benefit of humanity. From groundbreaking research to real-world applications, we champion the power of physics to shape a better future.
Founded in 1983, the Physics Society of Kenya unites professionals, students, and enthusiasts in advancing physics. We promote excellence, safeguard professional standards, and make physics accessible to all.
From the smallest particles to the vastness of space, physics explains our universe—and changes our world. It powers innovations like mobile phones, medical imaging, and clean energy solutions, impacting millions of lives in Kenya and beyond.
We break barriers, support diversity, and connect physicists across Kenya and the world. Through conferences, seminars, publications, and collaborations, we help turn scientific discovery into life-changing solutions.
Join PSK and connect with a vibrant community of physicists dedicated to research, innovation, and service to humanity. Together, we can inspire the next generation and tackle the challenges of our time.
Advancing Physics for the Benefit of Humanity
The Physics Society of Kenya (PSK) is the learned society of the physics profession in Kenya, dedicated to promoting, developing, and applying physics for the good of society. Established in 1983, PSK brings together physicists from all fields, working in partnership with national and international institutions to make physics accessible to people from all walks of life.
Our vision is simple yet bold — to be a leading voice in physics. Guided by our mission to enhance professionalism and welfare in physics practice for service to humanity, we champion the value of physics in solving real-world problems and improving everyday life.
We represent the diverse interests of all branches of physics, from theoretical research to industrial applications. PSK actively encourages innovation, facilitates the exchange of knowledge, and safeguards the integrity and standards of the profession. We also contribute to the training and professional development of physicists, setting benchmarks for excellence and supporting continuous learning for our members.
Through conferences, seminars, industrial visits, and publications, PSK creates platforms for physicists to collaborate, share breakthroughs, and explore new frontiers of science. Whether inspiring the next generation, engaging in national policy discussions, or transforming research into practical solutions, PSK is committed to ensuring that physics continues to improve lives today and in the future.
The Physics Society of Kenya collaboratively works in conjunction with other institutions and organizations that seek to promote and develop the physics profession, best practices, and sustainable development in the world. These organizations include:
