—and at least four of those seven medieval liberal arts are what we would now call scientific. We have a popular misunderstanding in the United States that the liberal arts subjects are only the humanities and social sciences, and even some universities establish structures that suggest that the liberal arts do not include the sciences. So, we need to emphasize to potential students and others that a liberally educated person must know the sciences and be able to think scientifically to solve

a graduate student and faculty to develop a research project, gain training in relevant techniques and instrumentation, collect data, and finally produce a poster and research abstract. Students participate in a weekly seminar on undergraduate research covering research ethics, writing a research abstract, making a scientific poster. Students participate in a weekly Materials Science special interest group in which they read scientific journals or tour other labs. Duration: 9 weeks Dates: June

-solving in class. As each student cohort progresses from the preparatory chemistry course on to general chemistry, we are accumulating data to determine the effectiveness of the course in supporting students’ future success in general chemistry and beyond. Through this project, RISE researchers will develop skills in basic statistical analysis as well as best practices for teaching in undergraduate classes. Faculty mentors: Drs. Buckley, Lessman, and Mixter Read Previous REU opportunity at Georgia

computer science, physics, and chemistry, as well as with an economics or data science minor. The applied mathematics major is offered in alongside the Bachelor of Science in Mathematics, Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics and the Bachelor of Science in Mathematics Education. The engineering and industry minor will take advantage of courses already offered by the university’s physics department to students in the Dual-Degree Engineering Program. In addition to math and science courses, students will

. In the natural sciences alone, each summer, more than nine faculty members worked with more than 21 students to conduct fieldwork, as well as gather and analyze data. And the number of projects keep on growing. The trio was part of nine student-faculty summer research projects in the natural sciences, many of which conducted fieldwork in the nearby forests, mountains and coastal areas of the Pacific Northwest. It is why they are here, just a couple hours away from the PLU campus, ankle-deep in

Business Schools. The Review also ranked PLU’s business school as one of the Best in the West. “We recommend Pacific Lutheran University as one of the best institutions a student could attend to earn a business school degree,” said Robert Frank, Princeton Review senior vice president of publications. “We chose the schools we profile in this book based on our high regard for their academic programs and our reviews of institutional data we collect from the schools.” The Princeton Review’s survey asks

experiments. Each day, I would either write up a new lab protocol, attempt to replicate a previous experiment’s results, or analyze data. I usually stayed until around 7 p.m., then collected my things, and biked home. When I started, I did one day of online lab safety training and then moved into shadowing for a few days. By the end of my first week, I had been given multiple lines of MOLM-13 acute myeloid leukemia cells. During my second week, I was preparing and running an assay to measure senescence in

concerned about those missing from classrooms. She wrote a paper on why students of color might leave school and college. Pierce-Ngo assisted in coordinating the Students of Color Retreat and encouraged more peer support. "I’m proud of the work we have done in supporting students, long-term. Data shows that the program works, too. Thanks to the unique one-on-one support model, the students were three times more likely to pursue post-secondary education."- Angela Pierce-Ngo '12 But she found her true

conditioning. Despite the heat and the sweat, I count myself lucky to be here. I’m on a scholarship learning how to use a programming language called Ruby on Rails. More importantly, I’m using Rails to design a little piece of software that scrapes data from social media sites using the hashtag as a search tool. Want to see all the Facebook photos tagged with #PacificLutheran or #PLU? This software can do it. Want to read every tweet that makes reference to #election2016? This software can do that too. I
