JWU PROVIDENCE
College of Arts & Sciences
The John Hazen White College of Arts & Sciences offers programs that help students develop and excel in critical and creative thinking skills, which are essential for generating innovative ideas. At JWU Providence, you can master these valuable skills and apply them to your chosen field.
Biology Students Learn Through Research
Biology students Kimberly Sacaza ’23, Alex Pedroza ’23 and Christine Wong ’23 conducted laboratory research under professor Christos Dimos’ guidance. During this project, students investigated plant-pathogen interactions in order to develop disease-resistant crops that are less dependent on environment-harming chemicals. Sacaza notes,“People think of biology as a pre-med path, but there’s so much you can do with your degree beyond practicing medicine. There’s research, there’s genetic counseling and so much more.”
Professors with Industry Experience
Before coming to JWU Providence, our professors worked as researchers, authors, police detectives, lawyers, filmmakers and more. They know how to equip you with the skills you need to succeed in today’s (and tomorrow’s) careers.
