Science at CSP

Most of the awards in the Science Department are for science majors...but our building is full of incredible pre-nursing students mastering their pre-requisites before they enter the nursing program and we don't want to miss a chance to recognize them too!

This is Grace Nwaononiwu, the winner of our Pre-Nursing Service Award. She is entering nursing school to become a nurse anesthetist.

Grace says, "To me, the most important part of the CSP Science Department is all its dedicated professors. They have created an educative, dynamic and supportive environment to learn the coursework. As a result, I have the means to excel!"

Grace, thank you for your excellent questions and for tutoring so many students!

Our First Year Chemistry Award for 2024 goes to Mia Lawrence! She is a biochemistry major hoping to pursue research at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester once she graduates.

She says, "I love the science department and the professors because of their commitment to helping students learn in and outside of the classroom. The professors are very passionate about what they teach, and it shows in their lectures. I hope to later on be involved in Dr. Yang's research program to learn more about research techniques and get hands-on experience under her guidance. That, combined with any summer internships/research, will help me prepare for my future career."

You're off to an amazing start, Mia! We're excited to watch your progress throughout your time at CSP.
