About
The Division of Science and Mathematics has traditionally attracted and produced outstanding students. The division concentrates on helping students to know God as the Creator while providing plenty of practical experience. Because of Union's small size, students receive hands-on experience with scientific research and resources much more readily than at a larger college or university.
Location
The Division of Science and Mathematics office is located in the Krueger Center in room 223
