The School of Theoretical and Applied Science (TAS) offers an integrative approach to the sciences and mathematics. While retaining the rigor and depth of each program without the boundaries of traditional science departments, students and faculty interact freely and creatively across the disciplines. Computer scientists have worked with the molecular biologists to develop the new curriculum in Bioinformatics. Physicists have established courses in climatology for the Environmental Science program. And the mathematicians and chemists have worked together to provide foundational courses in all of the majors. Such integrative collaboration is the norm in the School, not the exception.<\/p>\n

    The School of Theoretical and Applied Science has been a distinct and incorporate part of Ramapo College since it admitted its first class in 1971. Since its inception, the School of TAS has been committed to excellence in teaching, research, and public service in the sciences and mathematics, and has sought to prepare its graduates not only for professional and academic careers but to be scientifically literate citizens and lifetime learners in an increasing complex and ever changing technological culture.<\/p>\n

    The School’s curricula are comprehensive, including those designed to promote scientific and mathematical understanding among non-science students at the College. The School of TAS offers twelve undergraduate and a graduate program structured to meet the requirements of national accreditation standards as well as the needs of the contemporary marketplace and community. All students learn the sciences and mathematics in depth from multi-disciplinary perspectives and within the contexts of the liberal arts and global understanding.<\/p>\n

    The School of TAS places a strong emphasis on teaching, practice, and public service. It encourages faculty\/student collaborative research as a continuing course of study. Its faculty and graduates continue to serve as rich resources to governmental agencies, academic institutions, and private research facilities in promoting the public good and fostering educational excellence.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

    Black Lives Matter at Ramapo College and in the School of Theoretical & Applied Science<\/div>
    \n

    The faculty and staff of the School of Theoretical and Applied Science at Ramapo College are committed to the BLM movement.<\/p>\n

    We are committed to using our platforms as scholars and teachers to deal with issues of racism, anti-Blackness, and the struggle for social justice.\u00a0 TAS will support all college programs that attempt to raise awareness of the issue and commit ourselves to creating programs of our own to share with the college community.<\/p>\n

    We are committed to supporting our students, faculty, and staff of color in our collective struggles against racist and anti-Black practices and policies within and outside of our institution. We will never allow skin color to be a measure of a person\u2019s character.<\/p>\n

    We know the significance of amplifying Black and other marginalized voices, and commit ourselves to helping our students and audiences to understand the essential value of diversity and the importance of dismantling systemic inequities in order to create a just and fair world.<\/p>\n

    Please join us in this commitment.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
