The College of Science and Engineering is committed to providing superior scientific, engineering and mathematical education in the context of a major urban university with a liberal arts tradition. The college offers programs at both the undergraduate and the graduate levels in astronomy, atmospheric sciences, biology, clinical laboratory science, chemistry, geology, biochemistry, physics, and mathematics through the six departments of Biology, Chemistry and Biochemistry, Computer Science, Mathematics, Geosciences, and Physics and Astronomy. Through the School of Engineering and Computer Science, the college offers civil, electrical, and mechanical engineering. At the graduate level, the school offers the Master of Science in Computer Science and in Engineering. The college offers a graduate program in biomedical laboratory science through the Center for Biomedical Laboratory Science which provides practical professional experience and research opportunities through collaboration with numerous hospital service laboratories and off-campus clinical research laboratories. Finally, the college offers a multidisciplinary degree program in Statistics drawing from courses in Business, Economics, and Mathematics. The Statistics program is listed in the Department of Mathematics.
The college provides all of its students with a current, relevant, hands-on education in science and engineering. Close interaction between student and faculty in the laboratory and field environments fosters the development in the student of the critical skills required in science: the ability for objective analysis of a problem; the ability to design and carry out critical tests; and the ability to make objective interpretations of data.
Students wishing to follow one of the major and/or minor programs in the college should meet with a faculty adviser in the appropriate department immediately after admission to the university. Science curricula are inherently sequential so early advising and satisfaction of course prerequisites are essential to success in timely completion of program requirements.
