The College of Science and Mathematics provides study for students in
the areas of biology, chemistry, earth and environmental sciences, mathematics,
physics, and psychology by offering courses in the majors. Support courses
for nonscience majors such as agriculture, engineering, and the health professions
and courses for the general education of all university students are also
offered through the college. Our goal is to provide professional training
at the undergraduate and graduate levels; to serve as a foundation for a
career in science/mathematics; to provide preprofessional training in preparation
for careers in medicine, dentistry, pharmacy, veterinary medicine, and other
professions; or to provide continued study at the graduate level.
Furthermore, students and faculty members in the college conduct research
and scholarly activities in their academic areas and in solving applied
scientific problems of the region. These research activities are carried
out by campus scientists along with investigators at other research centers.
The College of Science and Mathematics is involved with the school systems
in science and mathematics teacher education.
The recruitment, retention, and education of underrepresented minorities
and females in science and mathematics are also major emphases.
