The Academy of Science (AOS) program strives to provide students the opportunity to deeply engage in mathematics, science, and research and to promote creativity and innovation through problem solving and collaboration.  Students in the AOS program acquire the skills to ask sophisticated scientific questions and conduct research and experimentation; to explore the interconnections between the sciences, math, and the humanities; to read, write, and communicate at a level that is required of university students; and to develop perspectives to assess the impact of scientific advancements on society.
