Natural Sciences

Return to: Rosary College of Arts and Sciences

The natural science major is appropriate for students interested in entry-level masters nursing programs and other allied health fields, environmental studies, and teaching. These fields require a greater breadth of course work than is typical of most undergraduate science majors. Students are strongly encouraged to complete one of the optional concentrations so as to have the appropriate preparation for these career choices.
