School of Mathematics and Sciences

Mission Statement 

The mission of the School of Mathematics and Sciences is to provide quality academic programs, majors, minors, concentrations, and pre-professional experiences taught by appropriately credentialed and competent faculty who foster a nurturing, scholarly and committed learning environment. The School of Mathematics and Sciences also contributes to the general education component of the LMU experience emphasizing values-based learning, the principles of Abraham Lincoln’s life, and knowledge in support of service to humanity while advancing life in the Appalachian region and beyond. 

The School of Mathematics and Sciences hosts not only baccalaureate major and minor fields of study, but includes specialized courses of study as pre-professional tracks that prepare students for entry into graduate and professional programs. These pre-professional programs include preparation for entry into medical, dental, pharmacy, optometry, or veterinary schools. In collaboration with the Carter and Moyers School of Education, initial teacher licensure is supported in several content areas.
