The rigor of the scientific method in the context of Landmark College’s innovative teaching methods

Hands-on scientific inquiry is one of the most exciting and meaningful ways to learn, and that is particularly true for students who learn differently.

The principles of scientific investigation form the foundation of the 生命科学副学士—and, 和我们其他的学术项目一样, the 生命科学 program is integrated with the College’s proven program to develop effective learning strategies and assistive technology skills.

课程旨在提高科学素养, 激发求知欲, and fosters an understanding of the role and relevance of science in the modern world.

该程序被安置在 Nicole Goodner MacFarlane科学，技术 & 创新中心，于2015年8月完工. Facilities include several fully equipped laboratories, 预备室, 还有一些专门的科学教室

  • No other college in the country offers our depth of expertise in teaching science to students who learn differently.

    Students say our faculty members “make science come alive” through their hands-on approach to teaching and their integration of Landmark College’s learning strategies and use of assistive technology in the curriculum.

    教师 members bring diverse academic backgrounds to the classroom, 包括人体生理学专业, 环境研究, 人类生态学, 生物学, 生物学教育, 化学, 和生物化学.

    根据国家学生信息中心, nearly one in five Landmark College graduates currently goes on to study a science-related major.

  • The 科学 faculty have been involved in re搜索 opportunities in partnership with Vermont Genetics Network, Vermont Established Program to Stimulate Competitive 研究: EPSCoR (both based out of the University of Vermont), and local agencies such as the Putney Conservation Commission.

    These projects provide individual re搜索 opportunities for students related to the fields of forest ecology, 野生动物管理和追踪, 长期生态数据分析, 水的污染, 遗传疾病, 以及动物生理学.

    Other re搜索 and co-curricular activities include the creation and establishment of Tree Campus USA status and the development of long-term ecological monitoring sites on campus and adjacent natural areas.

    除了指导和研究活动, 参与可持续发展的学生俱乐部, 园艺, and the environment have all been formed over the past few years and are growing in popularity.

  • 在当地公司实习, 卫生保健设施, 环保组织, and laboratories offer added opportunities to develop and apply skills in a professional setting.

    最近的实习包括:

    • 兽医诊所实习生
    • 佛蒙特州遗传学网络本科生暑期研究员
    • 普特尼保护委员会实习生
    • 园艺及保存实习生
    • 评估统计
    • 体育教育与运动管理实习生
    • 虚拟现实工程师和实验室助理
    • 数据分析师

    The college has partnerships with the following organizations that offer neurodiverse friendly supportive workforce and internship programs:

    • 广泛的期货
    • Dynamy
    • 残疾
    • 神经元多样化途径

  • 近年来, 生命科学领域的职业发展迅速, thanks to new technological and scientific advancements in such fields as biotechnology and molecular 生物学.

    增长机会尤其强劲的是:

    • 生物技术
    • 医疗保健/健康科学
    • 环境科学
    • 化学/生物化学
    • 药品

    If you plan to enter the workforce immediately after graduation from Landmark College, our A.S. 生命科学 offers excellent preparation for entry-level positions in laboratory re搜索, 盟军的健康, 环境服务.

    沿着这条路走到Landmark College B.S. 生命科学学位，学习如何:

    • 展示对关键概念的全面了解, 理论, and perspectives in 生物学 as well as the scope and limitations of the discipline.
    • Use scientific reasoning inquiry to design re搜索 and think critically about biological information and phenomena.
    • Write and communicate effectively using practices found in the biological fields.
    • 演示事业预备, professional skills and habits of continual improvement through experience, 自我反省, 协作, 项目管理.

  • 该学位有两个学习方向:

    • 生命科学
    • 环境生物学

    对A的要求.S. 生命科学 are the same as the foundation requirements for the B.S. 生命科学.
