Sciences & Environment

Known

From the very beginning of your Gordon experience, you’ll be known and supported by your personal advisor, professors and peers. Thanks to Gordon’s low student-to-faculty ratio, faculty are accessible and invested—meaning you might be mentored by a leading voice on climate change, a Fulbright Scholar or a National Science Foundation-funded physicist. They will help you shape your journey and experiences to meet your goals.

Grown

At Gordon learning happens by doing—in on-campus research labs, around our rich location on the North Shore of Boston and along the nearby Biomedical Corridor. Students have worked alongside faculty in collaborations with the Dana Farber Cancer Institute, Boston University and MIT. They’ve interned at places like NOAA, New England Biolabs, the Massachusetts Audubon Society, Ocean Genome Legacy, Museum of Science and Cell Signaling Technologies. You can also take your studies off campus with opportunities at the Au Sable Institute of Environmental Studies in the Great Lakes or Pacific Rim.

Prepared

Throughout your time at Gordon you’ll interact with the tools and techniques of modern science that will directly launch you into your career. Gordon grads have a track record of success in the sciences, where they are valued for their ability to serve others by solving big problems.
