Parents
As a parent, we know that you nurtured your student, encouraged curiosity, fostered learning, and gave him or her everything you could. Now it’s our turn. The College of Agricultural, Life, and Physical Sciences (CoALPS) at SIU is a top-tier research university with the heart of a small college. We will give your student hands-on access to cutting-edge research opportunities in our state-of-the-art laboratories, and our faculty, who share the same interests as your student, will enlighten and uncover his or her true potential.
Science is such a broad subject and your student knows exactly what interests him or her, which is why we have a variety of majors and minor, including interdisciplinary programs.
Whatever your student decides to study in the CoALPS, we can promise to push them to pursue his or her passion and reason for being.
