Unleash your scientific curiosity.
Unleash your scientific curiosity.
Our graduates find professional success in labs, hospitals, tech companies, research facilities, and beyond. These are just a few examples of the many jobs in the sciences.
A physician’s career is fueled by both a natural curiosity and a deep sense of caring. Whether working in a traditional hospital setting or on the front lines of humanitarian crises, there will always be a need for those who vow to “do no harm.”
Scientific researchers are explorers at heart, always looking to expand the bounds of human knowledge. Through the design of experiments, analysis of data, and the practice of the scientific method, researchers collect and interpret information for stakeholders in diverse industries.
Ecologists study the rhythms of the natural world and the complex relationships between humanity and the environment. They evaluate and predict how our choices will impact the land, water, wildlife, and ecosystems as a whole to protect our world and move toward a more sustainable future.
Chemists understand the world on a molecular level, whether they’re working in healthcare, product development, the food industry, or research labs across a variety of industries. They know the world revolves around chemical reactions and strive for breakthroughs that change lives for the better.
Study in state-of-the-art facilities.
In 2021, Butler made an $100 million dollar investment in the renovation of our Sciences Complex. We prioritize experiential learning, so you’ll have access to laboratories and classrooms with equipment you’d see in some of the world’s leading research companies.
Dive into a world of discovery.
“Choosing a career in the sciences allows a student to use their creativity alongside their analytical skills to investigate the world around them through a diverse array of jobs. Science students have the potential to generate and apply new knowledge that can contribute to solving some of the major health, environmental, and social challenges of our time. Butler provides outstanding support for students in the sciences by giving them hands-on laboratory training working alongside research active faculty. This develops their critical thinking, data analysis, experimental design, and scientific communication skills. It also provides opportunities to engage with the larger scientific community through conferences and internship opportunities with local, national, and international partners.”
