Science TrackFollow your questions. Build what comes next.
Curious about living things, technology, programming, or data? The Science Track provides a preparatory foundation for students considering Biology, Computer Science, or Information Systems at MEU.
What is the Science Track?
The Science Track is one of the two pathways within MEU’s Freshman Program. It provides a preparatory year with a stronger emphasis on mathematics and natural sciences for students considering science and technology degrees.
It is not a degree in science by itself. It is a structured first step toward an eligible bachelor’s program after the required academic work, equivalency process, and department-specific conditions are completed.
What will you explore?
The Science Track places greater weight on mathematics and natural sciences while retaining communication, social sciences, and other foundational learning.
Mathematics & reasoning
Develop quantitative and logical thinking through mathematics-related study.
Natural sciences
Explore scientific ways of asking questions, observing, and understanding the world.
Communication & a broader perspective
Build academic communication and learn about people, ideas, and society alongside science.
