The academic experience at the College of Science promotes undergraduate research. Undergraduates, even freshmen, are allowed to work in the research labs alongside graduate students and research professors. In Fall 2008, 27 undergraduates were given financial support for research activities. Our outstanding faculty includes accomplished scholars committed to academic excellence and professors with university wide teaching awards. Many of our classes, including all mathematics courses, are limited to approximately 30 students. We provide excellent learning and laboratory facilities, and we focus on providing students with career choice information and advising to ensure on-time graduation in four years.

Quality Affordable Education

The Marshall University Board of Governors voted to extend a Border State Scholarship to students classified as non-resident for fee purposes in Kentucky, Ohio, Maryland, Virginia and Pennsylvania. Non-resident tuition is currently $6,001 for the spring semester with Metro residents paying $4,165 for the spring semester. Students will need to have an ACT score of 23 and a 2.75 grade point average and remain in good academic standing to receive a $3,500 Border State Scholarship for the year. Therefore, receiving the new Border State Scholarship of $1750 per semester will bring the non-resident tuition very close to the metro rate ($6,001 minus $1,750 = $4,251 for the spring semester).
