The School of Natural Sciences (SONS) has a goal of preparing students to think critically and creatively and to experience an explicit understanding of physical, chemical, and biological processes. Our programs prepare students to adapt to changing social, economic and technological conditions as well as changes in the health care industry. Our external collaborations with K-12 schools, major technological and environmental corporations and the health care community provide valuable services to the community and important opportunities for our students. The School of Natural Sciences includes both resident and Kean/Ocean faculty of Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. We provide training and experiences within 13 resident programs; six joint programs in the Health-Related professions; and three programs at Kean/Ocean. The School offers programs in areas from Biological Sciences, Chemistry/Physics and the Pre health-related professions. Our graduates can be found working in industry, teaching in K-12 schools, practicing in healthcare facilities, or furthering their education at postgraduate levels.
