The College of Natural and Mathematical
Sciences supports an impressive number of undergraduate students
who are enrolled in nine undergraduate programs at UMBC.
The emphasis on research experiences as significant instructional
opportunities enables many UMBC undergraduates to work
side-by-side with faculty, post docs, graduate students
and other personnel using state-of-the-art equipment
and testing various hypotheses. Emphasis on interdisciplinary
collaboration enhances the undergraduate educational
experience at UMBC and allows students to test the waters
for future career and post baccalaureate educational
interests.
