Our faculty's long-standing tradition of collaboration and innovation supports students' diverse academic and interdisciplinary pursuits. We are dedicated to providing exceptional educational, research and experiential opportunities that equip graduates with critical thinking skills for successful careers and lives of purpose.

Programs in the natural sciences offer hands-on laboratory experience and undergraduate research in state-of-the-art facilities, soon to be housed in the new Sean McConnon Discovery Center, opening in fall 2026. Technology focused programs engage students in applied learning, data analysis, and emerging technologies to address contemporary challenges.

Programs in the social sciences and health fields examine human behavior, public policy, and societal systems that shape equity, access, and health outcomes. Across disciplines, students apply quantitative methods, statistical analysis, and evidence-based reasoning to inform decision-making.
