Who
We Are
|
As a liberal arts college for women, Bryn Mawr
College is committed to:
 |
encouraging large numbers of young women
to major in disciplines in which they have
been traditionally underrepresented and to
pursue graduate study and careers in the sciences,
and |
 |
ensuring science literacy among all students. |
Our past grants from HHMI have
helped us to strengthen science education by supporting
interdisciplinary approaches to teaching in biology
and the related sciences; undergraduate
research opportunities; use of computing technologies
in the sciences; and professional development
for precollege science teachers.
