Biology This degree prepares students for careers in medicine, dentistry, and industry. The program also equips students with the background necessary for professional training in research or medicine. Chemistry Explore the exciting frontiers of science in polymer, bio-, medicinal, and environmental chemistry. Our program leads to careers in fields like industrial research and development, pharmaceuticals, medicine, dentistry, veternary science, biotechnology, forensic science, environment, and more. Computer Science Work in industries like computer networking, artificial intelligence, operating systems, robotics, databases, data mining, electric commerce, or software development. Our program is rigorous enough to command the respect of the top companies in the nation, yet also provides the flexibility for students to pursue their own interests. Environmental Science Teach at the pre-college level or join state and local environmental protection agencies. Or pursue an environmentally-focused graduate education in fields like law, journalism, policy, or economics. Geology and Hydrogeology You can choose a geology emphasis, such as geochemistry, mineralogy, petrology, organic chemistry, groundwater chemistry, seismology, geophysical exploration, groundwater flow, or the evolution of mountains. You’ll be prepared to work in academics, as a consultant in geology or hydrogeology, or at an environmental or energy-related firm. Interdisciplinary Science As broad and open, or concise and focused as your mind will allow. Alumni can combine their science education with humanistic studies like management, law, education, the arts, or communications. This program is also good for those interested in health-related sciences like sports medicine and athletic training. Mathematics and Applied Mathematics After graduation, many of our students pursue industrial or corporate careers. Usually these are in the financial or computer-related industries. Others prefer to continue their academic career, either in mathematics or in a related application area. Physics, Applied Physics, and Astronomy Many of our graduates have achieved success in medicine, law, and business, as well as in aerospace, materials science, and the semiconductor industry. Our alumni also have the foundation for further study in physics, applied physics, astronomy, or engineering. |
