Programs of study: math and data science

 
Our science graduates ask how the world works. Through lab experiences, independent research and one-on-one mentoring from our faculty, graduates will be prepared for a variety of professions from theoretical to applied. Our graduates earn acceptance to medical school nearly 20% more often than the national average. They are also employed at many leading companies in the country, working to tackle challenges and problems facing the 21st century. Our graduates are well-equipped to be caring, ethical leaders in science, nursing, ecology, and health-related fields.
