The School of Sciences offers rigorous programs with an emphasis on personalized instruction and faculty-student interaction. It’s the perfect environment in which to explore, experiment and discover.
We offer excellent science facilities and equipment, including our digital planetarium, observatory and 40-inch optical telescope, Biological Field Station on Otsego Lakeand DNA sequencer.
You’ll have exceptional opportunities to put what you learn in the classroom into practice. Study tropical biology in a Peruvian rainforest or examine fault lines in southern California during a faculty-led field course. Present a public planetarium show or demonstrate a chemistry activity for local children at our A.J. Read Science Discovery Center. Build a supercomputer.
Whether it’s in the lab or out in the field, students in the School of Sciences have many opportunities for collaborative undergraduate research with faculty mentors. ̳ mathematics and science students regularly attend national academic conferences, often presenting their own scholarly work.
Can’t get enough science? Join the , Chemistry Club, , , , o and connect outside the classroom with other students who share your interests.
