Our degree programs offer excellence in both academic quality and interdisciplinary flexibility
Building upon LeTourneau's rich history of hands-on learning, our students have exceptional opportunities to do in-depth chemistry and physics research at the undergraduate level in a rich learning environment.
From astrophysics and quantum mechanics, to astronomy and nanotechnology, to drug design and biofuels, you won't just read about technology in a textbook. Our lab-based learning transforms interesting concepts and theories into concrete experiments and observations.
At LeTourneau we believe that rigorous application to master technical and scientific thinking skills is necessary, but it is not sufficient for your success.
At LeTourneau we foster a sense of community, with personal interaction and collaboration among students and dedicated faculty, who are all committed Christians. We believe that God is the ultimate creator and sustainer of the universe, and that studying the physical sciences is compatible with seeking a deeper knowledge of ourselves and our relation to God as the source of all truth.
A successful chemist will know how chemistry and theology relate to each other under a larger worldview.
So whether you love the world of crime scenes or quantum physics, you'll graduate prepared to work at the cutting edge of science, but also impact the world you love for Christ.
