Academy in the Liberal Arts and Sciences

What if you could use science to solve some of the world’s biggest problems? How does pollution affect our planet at a chemical level? How do living organisms work together to keep ecosystems balanced? What can the study of Earth’s minerals, rocks, and oceans teach us about the natural resources we rely on daily—like water, fuels, soils, and metals—in our tech-driven world? Students will explore these questions and more as we dive deep into the core disciplines of chemistry, geology, and biology. Through hands-on experiments, field studies, and interactive activities, students will investigate the science behind environmental issues like climate change, resource depletion, and integrating the natural sciences to understand a dynamic environment.

This Academy equips students with the knowledge and skills needed to understand and address the environmental challenges of today. Whether analyzing the impact of pollutants on ecosystems, studying the geological forces that shape our planet, or exploring the role of biodiversity in maintaining a healthy environment, students will gain a holistic understanding of how science can help save the Earth.
