Students in this four-year program engage in activities that will help them transform into successful science professionals, including frequent opportunities to interact and network with practicing science professionals from a diverse array of science careers.
If accepted into the Science Pathways Academy, you will join a learning group of fellow science majors who:
- enroll in Academy-specific sections of your first-year science courses;
- engage in early biology and chemistry research;
- participate in a four-year mentoring network; and
- take career preparation seminars that assist you in preparing for a rewarding science career.
To apply for the Science Pathways Academy, please complete a secondary application for admission that includes a 400-600 word essay and math and chemistry readiness tests. Selection is based on high school academic record and intent to complete a bachelor’s degree in a science major.
