Natural Sciences Department

Program Description    

Welcome to the Department of Natural Sciences!  We are a multidisciplinary group with programs in Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Geology and Geography.  Our curriculum focuses on using scientific inquiry as a way of knowing and applying scientific knowledge to societal issues of local, regional, and global importance.

While exploring the information on this website, you will find our faculty has diverse teaching and research experiences that afford students research opportunities in the field and laboratory.  In combination with small class sizes and modern facilities, we believe such opportunities will better prepare students to enter the work force, graduate school, or a professional program in a broad range of disciplines, including health and forensic sciences, natural resources management, aquatic science, physics, science education, geography, and geographic information systems (GIS).

Please take some time to read through the web materials specific to each program or area of study and feel free to contact us with any questions about our department.
