Mission
The College of Science and Mathematics offers
quality, competitive Bachelor’s and Master’s degree
programs that prepare graduates for success in
professional and graduate programs, and for careers
in the biological and physical sciences and mathematics.
The College also supports a strong general
education program by providing core curricula in
science and mathematics, for students pursuing
careers in the health and environmental sciences,
engineering, technology, and teacher education. The
CSM provides advanced learning opportunities for
students via faculty mentored research projects and
internships that promote the discovery of new information
and the application of new knowledge. The CSM
supports the community, region and related professions
through outreach including initiatives that
enhance economic development, scientific literacy,
and K-12 education.
The College offers BS degree programs in biology,
chemistry, mathematics, and physics, and a BA in
mathematics. The BS in chemistry is certified by the
American Chemical Society (ACS). The College also
offers a master of science in applied natural sciences
(MSANS) with emphasis areas in biochemistry,
biology, and chemistry that can be obtained separately
or along with the bachelors’ degree in a combined fiveyear,
3+2 program.
Departments of biology, chemistry, and mathematics/
physics provide versatile major programs with select
emphasis areas and minors characterized by
appropriate solid fundamental science and
