Baker science students are preparing to make an impact as health care professionals, engineers, researchers, biologists, environmentalists and teachers.

Students have a chance to present their research at regional, national and international conferences.

Small classes allow you to interact and connect with your professors
and classmates.

Baker maintains the Baker Wetlands, the
Ivan L. Boyd Arboretum and Ivan L. Boyd Woods for research and observation.

Chemistry majors "shadow" physicians and professional chemists and complete internships in chemical laboratories and research programs
at major universities.

The new Ivan L. Boyd Center for Collaborative Science Education features state-of-the-art technology and extensive lab space.

Baker science majors get more hands-on experience in one year than many students at larger universities get in their entire college careers.

Of those who apply, Baker students are accepted into medical school at a 78% clip. The national average is 44%.

Science at Baker

Study in State-of-the-Art Facilities

Science classes and labs are held in the Ivan L. Boyd Center for Collaborative Science Education. Make yourself at home in industry-standard labs and well-equipped classrooms.

Small School, Big Opportunities

Because our classes are small, you will have the opportunity to work closely with full professors to produce original research and present it at regional, national and even international conferences. This is a rare opportunity for undergraduates.
