Dean's Welcome Statement
Thank you for coming to find out more about Fisk University and the programs within our School of Natural Sciences & Mathematics. We hope to provide a transformational experience for our students both inside and outside the classroom. We want to equip them to discover the wonder of the natural and physical world, its laws, and the resulting technological innovations, to connect with fulfilling training and career paths, and to impact society as the scholars, leaders, and innovators of tomorrow, consistent with the Fisk University mission.

Academic Departments
Our academic disciplines allow you to specialize your focus to one area of interest. They are a part of your transition into higher education which involves being aware that each discipline is a distinct discourse community with specific vocabularies, styles, and modes of communication.
Life and Physical Sciences
Courses in this category focus on describing, explaining, and predicting natural phenomena using the scientific method. Courses involve the understanding of interactions among natural phenomena and the implications of scientific principles on the physical world and on human experiences.
Mathematics and Computer Science
Mathematics is one of the oldest scientific disciplines; computer science is one of the youngest. Yet both play broad and critical roles in our world today. At Fisk University, we offer robust undergraduate programs in both disciplines to form a supportive and welcoming community.
Business
The Department of Business Administration offers a major in business administration for a Bachelor of Science degree. Within the major, students may choose a specialized concentration in accounting, financial economics, international business relations, and management.

I selected Fisk because the first time I visited the campus, it felt like home. I enjoy both the family atmosphere and the rigorous academic programs. To prepare me for the future, my professors are ensuring that I leave Fisk with more than just a degree.
My professors are pushing us to be career-ready by presenting us with opportunities for internships and studying abroad, to gain the necessary skills and work experience for our future careers. Through these opportunities, my professors are ensuring that I will stand out as an applicant when applying to jobs and graduate school.
