Taylor Science Center

Through independent projects, the Senior Program, and summer internships with faculty members, Hamilton provides an increasing number of opportunities for students to engage in significant — often publishable — research at the undergraduate level across all disciplines.

The Taylor Science Center is the largest academic building on campus. It was designed for collaborative learning among faculty and students, with teaching labs for hands-on research. The complex contains a greenhouse, auditoriums, coffeehouse, and more than 100 laboratories.

STEM majors at Hamilton include: Astronomy, Biochemistry/Molecular Biology, Biology, Chemical Physics, Chemistry, Computer Science, Environmental Studies, Geoarchaeology, Geosciences, Mathematics and Statistics, Neuroscience, Physics, and Psychology.

With 1,850 students on campus, you’ll enjoy a 9:1 student-faculty ratio, and the open curriculum ensures that your classmates will be just as interested in the topic as you are. Hamilton’s faculty members are accomplished scholars and distinguished teachers. In the classroom, the lab, the studio and beyond, professors engage actively in the intellectual lives of our students. And don’t be surprised to see them at your concert, basketball game or supporting your fundraiser.
