Our mission

We teach students how to solve real-world problems that are relevant to society and the common good.  We provide an academically challenging program that positions students for excellent careers, welcomes all students into science, encourages them to grow as morally- responsible individuals and stewards of the planet, and creates scientifically-informed citizens.

Linking our mission to the St. Thomas' mission


At a gathering of UST geology alums, Tom Hickson gave an address making clear the connection between these two mission statements.  For complete text of that address, click here.
