About CNAS
The College of Natural & Applied Sciences was created in 2003 by combining the former College of Agriculture & Life Sciences with the mathematical sciences, natural sciences, and pre-professional programs from the former College of Arts & Sciences and the military science program from the former College of Business & Public Administration.
The College of Natural & Applied Sciences administers courses in military science and agriculture as part of the federal land-grant mandate.
Structure
The mission of a land-grant institution is threefold:
- Research
- Extension
- Teaching
Programs include:
- Western Pacific Tropical Research Center (WPTRC)
- Cooperative Extension & Outreach (CE&O)
- Resident Instruction (RI)
All courses offered for university credit are part of the Resident Instruction mission
and are administered through the College of Natural and Applied Sciences. Non-credit
university courses are part of the extension mission and administered through the
Cooperative Extension & Outreach. Faculty from WPTRC and CE&O serve as CNAS teaching
faculty for the Agriculture and Consumer & Family Sciences programs.
