CONCENTRATIONS
Mathematics:
Appreciate the power and beauty in the logic of mathematical
structure and
thought. Develop the ability to bring the power of mathematics to
the understanding
and solution of problems in a variety of fields.
Computer
Science: With the theory and application of computers, gain insight
into computer
research, which is yielding powerful new methods of analysis and
visualization.
Explore the significant impact of computers on mathematics and
the physical
sciences.
Physics:
Study the fundamental laws of nature through investigation and
mathematical
formulation. Explore the roles of computers in the sciences and
interdisciplinary
sciences.
INTERNSHIPS
AND STUDY ABROAD
Use your problem
solving and analytical skills in real life situations through an
internship.
Wells alumnae who are established leaders in their fields often provide
internships
opportunities for current students. The following is a sample of
internships
in the Mathematical and Physical Sciences area held by Wells
students in
recent years:
• Atmospheric
and Environmental Research, Inc., Lexington, MA
• Museum
of Science & Technology, Syracuse, NY
• Wall
of America, Sharon, CT
• D &
D Data, Vienna, VA
With phenomenal
resources at universities around the world, the opportunities are
endless. Try
a semester in Scotland, England, Ireland or France and expand your
horizons along
with your academic resources. Mathematical and Physical
Sciences majors
can pursue programs around the world.
