Science
Science at Kent encourages students to look at the world with a curious eye. You should question things—and then question some more. Whether you plan on becoming a scientist or not, you will leave Kent with a scientist’s curiosity, skepticism, and joy of discovery.
The world is full of complex information. Studying science at Kent helps you learn to question, analyze, and communicate what you find.
Thinking Scientifically
In Kent's science labs and classrooms, scientific evidence challenges students to understand how our world works. Whether those lessons are learned in biology, astronomy, meteorology, or chemistry, students will gain an awareness of the science that exists all around us.
Scientifically Literate, Global Citizens
Communicating scientific knowledge effectively is one of the hallmarks of our classrooms and labs. The borders of sharing this knowledge are not limited to the Kent campus; for instance, data from student work is used by the Housatonic Valley Association to track and improve wildlife conditions in the area.
Preparing for Careers in the Sciences
No matter your aspirations, the scientific literacy built at Kent provides a foundation to make science a lasting part of your life. Our faculty members take the time to develop creative projects and keep the curriculum fresh. You may be inspired to pursue science as a career based on your participation in monitoring stream water quality, replicating genes in a Kent lab, and developing your own Independent Study project to dig deeper into a particular topic of interest.
