Students with career interests in the sciences, mathematics, computer
science or information systems will find degree programs in these
areas in the College of Science and Mathematics. Those students with
interests in medicine, dentistry, pharmacy, veterinary medicine,
engineering, or related fields most frequently choose to pursue the
pre-professional requirements in the Biological and Physical Sciences
or the Chemistry Department. While degree programs are not offered
in these pre-professional areas, students with appropriate course
selection can meet the entrance requirements of most professional
schools with a biology or chemistry degree from the College of Science
and Mathematics.
Students
have numerous opportunities to gain practical experience
in their field. Through co-ops and internships available
to students in all degree programs, they can obtain
direct experience in the workplace with companies
or government agencies. Our Mentor-Protégé Scholarship
Program enables students to work one-on-one with
faculty in undergraduate research projects in areas
of mutual interest. The
Center for Industrial Collaboration within the
college enables students to work alongside faculty
on company-sponsored applied research. Our industry-based
programs give students career-related experiences
that often lead directly to job offers upon graduation.
The
College of Science and Mathematics houses four academic
