Physics - Roanoke College

Physics from Roanoke College is a Campus Bachelor Physics degree that prepares you for a Science career. Mathematics The MCSP department strives to be an energetic department of teachers, mentors and scholars. As teachers, we must constantly innovate to present our disciplines in the most effective way to a changing student audience. As mentors, we want to involve students in undergraduate research and extracurricular experiences that help bring the students into our disciplines as colleagues. As scholars, we seek to be active and contribute in ways that enhance our understanding of our disciplines and develop professional relationships that provide support for our work. In pursuing these ideals, a number of specific challenges face the department in the years ahead. We must increase collaboration on our courses and scholarly activities, and improve our cooperation on multi-section courses. While increasing the department\\\'s visibility on and off campus, we must maintain and improve our commitment to outstanding classroom teaching. We must continue to identify the appropriate use of technology, and more aggressively pursue the multimedia facilities needed to effectively use this technology. We should work closely with other departments to create interdisciplinary courses and make stronger connections to other disciplines in our own courses. A description of our vision in one word might be \\\"buzz.\\\" Our department should be a hive of faculty and students actively engaged in exciting work. Through funded, sustainable research programs, faculty and students would be involved in the free exchange of intellectual ideas, challenge and encourage each other to new levels of achievement, and provide a stimulating and attractive environment for all. When colleagues across campus and at other institutions discuss mathematics and science education, our names should surface as faculty and programs that contribute in important ways. We should be at the forefront of innovative pedagogy, classroom implementation of technology, and undergraduate research opportunities. This positive image of involvement and excellence is our goal, and with the proper effort by all departmental members, one which we will achieve. View more details on Roanoke College .
