The College offers a major program in interdisciplinary science (HEGI S 4901). It is the nature of the program to provide an individualized education in science as an alternative to the traditional science majors which are available. The program in interdisciplinary science is supported by faculty of the Departments of Biological Sciences, Chemistry, Computer Sciences, and Physics. Objectives The interdisciplinary science major is designed to provide flexibility in designing a sound science program to meet individual needs and interests, and to provide opportunities for students to take courses in a number of related disciplines. The program will be structured around a theme or goal identified by the student, and will provide appropriate education for interdisciplinary fields where scientific, analytical and technical expertise is assets. Students with interests in science teaching, health fields, materials science, technical sales or management, laboratory techniques, etc. may find this major matched to their needs. The coordinator provides assistance in designing a curriculum that matches the students' educational goals. All course selections must have the prior approval of the program coordinator to insure that each individual has been properly advised and that the program chosen has integrity and coherence. Interdisciplinary science majors will often be referred to other academic advisers for guidance in the choice of non-science courses that pertain to their major. Students who have successfully graduated from Iona College with a degree in Biology or Environmental Science will be able to: understand and apply the scientific method demonstrate basic laboratory skills needed for experimentation. effectively communicate scientific ideas as professionals in the field. think as (ethical) scientists, being able to critically analyze data and determine the value of the data. demonstrate a knowledge base of fundamental biological concepts.
