 The Department of Natural
Sciences prepares students for careers in a changing world and enables
them to lead more fulfilling lives. Almost
boundless opportunities are open with a wide variety of occupations to
students who graduate with a major or a minor in science. Science majors
or minors may be employed as sales or technical representatives for chemical
equipment and pharmaceutical companies, as well as water purification
companies. Both industrial and government opportunities are available
for the graduate with a chemistry major. Science students who would like
to become chemistry or biology teachers earn certification to teach in
their chosen fields in grades seven through 12.
Studies
in biology or chemistry will provide students with a working knowledge
of important principles which will best prepare them for teaching careers;
for graduate work in their chosen fields; or for advancement in a scientific
career in allied health fields, government, or industry.
Each
student is taught the principles of problem solving. Problems may exist in such wide ranging
areas as biological chemistry to superconductivity, but the students
who major or minor in the Department of Natural Sciences are well equipped
to face the future.
