Welcome to the Department of Natural Sciences, where students can major in Biology, Chemistry, Environmental Science, Exercise Science, Health Professions, Medical Imaging and Medical Technology. We also have a Pre-Med Post-Baccalaureate Program for students who have graduated from college and are applying to medical schools.
Science courses at Caldwell are taught in a small classroom setting where each student has the opportunity to interact closely with their professor. All labs are taught by professors (not graduate teaching assistants), so that you can continue inquisitions outside of the classroom under the guidance of your professors.
All students in the Department of Natural Sciences are given the opportunity to work on their own independent research project under faculty mentorship, giving you the opportunity to investigate a topic you are interested in and passionate about. We have also had many students participate in summer research internships at renowned laboratories across the country.
Our faculty are dedicated to helping you succeed in the classroom, in the lab, and beyond.
Please contact us if you have any questions!
