College of Natural Sciences - Office of the Dean

The College of Natural Sciences consists of nine departments and offers bachelors, master's degrees, and curricula for pre-professional students in medicine, veterinary medicine, nutrition, physical therapy, and dentistry. Programs within the College of Natural Sciences can prepare you for science and health related jobs in the public or private sector, a career in teaching, a graduate or professional education. Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics and the Health fields (STEM+H) play an increasingly important role in our society. The college seeks to educate the next generation of scientists and future health professionals as well as a science-literate citizenship who are equipped to make informed decisions in daily life. The college educates teachers who effectively teach our children. Students in this college are provided a broad-based, fundamental education in the natural sciences and allied health fields and are challenged to think critically, analytically, and creatively.
