At the School of Human Ecology, as a part of the College of Natural Sciences, students learn from and interact with teachers and researchers in the top of their fields, and we provide extensive opportunities for students to gain real research experience, which is key to successful education. Though the college is large, roughly 8,000 undergraduates at any time, students have many opportunities to become part of a community--to connect with each other and with science.
