The School of Natural Sciences

The School of Natural Science encompasses a broad range of disciplines from kinesiology to mathematics, biology to chemistry, pre-health to environmental science. We provide an excellent preparation for professional schools such as medical, pharmacy, dental, optometric, physical therapy and veterinary schools. We also have students that successfully enter graduate schools in fields such as chemistry, molecular biology, mathematics and ecology or work in these various areas. Some students prepare themselves for teaching biology, kinesiology or mathematics in secondary schools.

Grads put the "distance" in "distance learning"

Some people take distance learning very seriously.

This December 11 eight members of the online master’s in kinesiology attended ommencement from out of state—way out of state: three from Guam, two from Seattle and one each from Boston, Denver and Chicago.

The kinesiology master's degree, one of four online M.A. programs at FPU, prepares professionals in physical education, athletic training and sports administration. Depending on when students start, the program can be completed in 14 or 17 months. Jim Ave, Ph.D., is the program director.
