The College of Natural Sciences & Mathematics (NSM) is dedicated to the principle that teaching and research are intricately mixed and that undergraduate research, when properly approached, is an integral part of teaching. This fine balance between teaching and research is NSM's greatest strength. Through the combination of quality instruction, student involvement in research and strong academic advisement, NSM provides its students with the best education possible. NSM is one of seven colleges at CSUF and contains five departments. The college offers through its departments and programs, baccalaureate degrees in all disciplines and master's degrees in biological science, chemistry, biochemistry, geology, physics and mathematics.
NSM currently has 91 full-time faculty members. There are approximately 1,400 students majoring in the programs
offered by NSM. Each year the college graduates an average of 350 students with baccalaureate
degrees and 50 students with master's degrees. Many of our graduates, either immediately following graduation
or after receiving postgraduate degrees, find employment in the neighboring communities, providing a tremendous
resource for the economic development of the area.
