Department Philosophy

The philosophy of the Xavier Science and Technology Department, in accord with Ignatian ideologies, is to develop young men who truly appreciate and understand the sciences and the subsequent scientific processes associated with them. Through their experiences in the classroom and the laboratory, our aim is to prepare our students to be successful in their future academic and career endeavors. We also strive to make real the connections between the sciences and God’s natural order.

Science, with double period laboratory, is required for three years.
Electives are available and a four year sequence is possible.
