Department Mission Statement:

The Department of Natural, Health and Mathematical Sciences seeks to prepare all students for a life of service, learning and responsible living. Therefore, the Department purposes to develop in our students an understanding and appreciation of the strengths and limitation of scientific thought, encourage continual stewardship of the created order, promote a recognition of the value of logic and creativity in critical thought, and accurately present the role of science in contemporary culture. Faculty strive to develop Christ-centered learners by teaching, mentoring, and serving all students in an academically rigorous environment to produce professionals in their respective fields. We encourage harmony in the dialogue between scientific study and faith to engender a sense of celebration of the intrinsic beauty of the universe.
