SCHOOL OF NATURAL SCIENCES AND MATHEMATICS

We are problem solvers, but our journey doesn’t end with an “answer.” Our school covers a wide variety of disciplines: from Biochemistry to Environmental Studies. Mathematics to Data Science. Studies that prepare students for health professions and a program for future forensic scientists. Across all of our offerings, our students are given rigorous, real-world learning opportunities that not only stress scientific inquiry but drive home the value of civic engagement and social justice.

“The lab courses at Chaminade are built to give us hands-on experience that we can take into the real world. I learned crime scene investigation techniques, including crime scene mapping and photography, latent fingerprint processing, and bloodstain pattern analysis.”

“I think Chaminade was the perfect place to feel comfortable being yourself because it was such a big melting pot. Everyone was so different and had an interesting background. Chaminade prepared me to be a role model, not only in building my passion in science, but also by building my character.”

“From a curriculum standpoint, participating in [Computing4Change], students experience an exciting hands-on opportunity to work in a multidisciplinary team with mentors to make an impact on a real-world problem, interact with a supercomputer and big datasets, and get exposed to and apply the latest data science technologies and approaches.”
