Academic Programs
Undergraduate Programs
Applied Physics
The Physics Program provides a strong background for students interested in scientific research, engineering, and for those who intend to pursue advanced degrees. Students are provided with ample opportunities to participate in research in a variety of fields.
Biochemistry/ Molecular Biology
The Biochemistry/Molecular Biology program bridges the chemical and biological sciences. Program focuses on how cells solve various biological problems and the role of the chemical components.
Biology
Program emphasizes the diversity of life-forms that have evolved and the wide range of levels at which they can be studied: molecular to ecosystem.
Chemistry
Program provides the understanding the behavior of living systems, apply chemistry to problems in physics, geology, environmental studies or marine science.
Environmental Science and Studies
The Program provides the understanding of how physical, biological and human components of the environment interact.
Geology
Provides a solid foundation in the traditional sub-disciplines of geology. These include courses in mineralogy, petrology, field methods, structural geology, sedimentology, and stratigraphy.
Marine Science
Encompasses two general areas of study: Marine Biology and Oceanography. The program is interdisciplinary and requires student competence in multiple areas of science (biology, chemistry, physics, mathematics).
Mathematics
Provides background for employment possibilities including: Finance, Statistics, Computer Science, Cryptography, Science and Engineering, Teaching, Graduate School.
Sustainability
Program's focused study on topics such as alternative energy, pollution, conservation, public policy and law, and sustainability management in business and industry.
