Science Department

The mission of the Science Department at Chatham University is to:

• provide undergraduate women with an excellent education that emphasizes hands-on experience, individualized instruction, interdisciplinary collaboration and undergraduate research, and that prepares them for professional work and graduate studies.
• provide graduate students with the science courses and technical information that they will need in their allied health studies and future careers.

The Science Department functions as a super-department, with a unified budget and a single chairperson. This structure is one of our strengths as it puts into action the interdisciplinarity that will be the key feature of science in the future.
