Why Study the Natural Sciences?
The CMU BSc is distinctive in its inclusion of a broad interdisciplinary base, helping students to see the beauty and complexity of the world from various perspectives within science, biblical and theological studies, humanities, and social sciences. The Bachelor of Science has the following degree options:
- Biology (four-year)
- General (three-year)
- Mathematics (three-year and four-year). For more information, go to Mathematics program page.
Many students majoring in other fields find science enhances their understanding and application of their chosen subject(s) in exciting and unexpected ways. Furthermore, scientific studies offer great practice in critical thinking, and help students to develop exceptional organizational and analytical skills, all of which are highly applicable to other fields. Naturally, science courses can also form an integral part of pre-professional studies.
