At Hanover, studying economics will lead you to an understanding of the financial issues that drive local and world events – wealth, poverty, business, politics, stock markets, recession, employment, taxes and more. By developing a broad perspective, you’ll prepare for much more than making a living, you’ll prepare to make a difference.

Through meaningful service and opportunities to travel on extended field trips with our faculty in the U.S. and abroad, you’ll learn about economic challenges facing today’s world, and explore how you can help overcome them. The study of economics prepares you to excel in the continually changing and increasingly interconnected global economy.

Computing is a discipline that requires and develops capabilities in solving deep, multidimensional problems requiring imagination and sensitivity to a variety of concerns. A major in computer science will provide you with a foundation of knowledge, problem solving skills and habits of logical thinking that will serve as a competitive advantage to you in whatever career you pursue.

If you want to make a positive difference in the world, study computing. Computing drives innovation in the sciences (such as the human genome project, AIDS vaccine research, environmental monitoring and protection, just to mention a few), and also in engineering, business, entertainment and education.

As a kinesiology student, you’ll develop an in-depth knowledge of anatomy and physiology, allowing you to help people maintain healthy lifestyles. You’ll also learn how exercise impacts the body’s structure and function through intensive courses in human sciences and biomechanics.

With access to exceptional labs and equipment, and a world-class recreation center, you’ll have opportunities for experiences and research depth rarely available to undergraduates. For example, in your human anatomy class you’ll work in the cadaver lab. With the state-of-the-art human patient simulator, you’ll experience what it’s like to be part of a healthcare team as you diagnose and treat virtual patients.

At Hanover, a community of teachers and learners prepares committed, competent, culturally responsive, and critically reflective new teachers.

Mathematics students at Hanover learn to reason through problems to find a solution, express ideas clearly and recognize relations among seemingly dissimilar situations. As a mathematics major, you will become a creative thinker who can analyze a wide range of situations. You will master the skill of simplifying the complex. With small class sizes and a dedicated faculty, Hanover also lets you follow your particular interests through internships and independent study programs.

Human fitness is a personally rewarding and increasingly important field of study in today’s world. Health and Movement Studies takes a practical, hands-on approach. Combining courses in exercise science, psychology, and health and fitness, this major will help you arrive at a complete, real-world understanding of your field.

You’ll develop a broad-based understanding of the human body and explore how you can use that knowledge to help others achieve higher levels of fitness. You’ll also learn how to analyze a person’s fitness level and teach or correct a movement. By investigating the psychology of motivation, you’ll be able to inspire people to reach their goals.

As a geology student at Hanover, you will develop your scientific reasoning through discoveries in the classroom and in the field. Geology studies are supported by a wide range of hands-on experiences that make learning come to life.

Our small class sizes allow for lively discussions about compelling issues in geology, ranging from global warming to depletion of our natural resources. You will have opportunities to work with state-of-the-art laboratory technology and pursue research in collaboration with our faculty. You will gain valuable field experience in at least one of Hanover’s off-campus travel courses to the Grand Canyon, Ghost Ranch, N.M., or even northwest Scotland, where you will learn how to recognize rock types and geological structures, as well as apply your knowledge to field-mapping and problem-solving.

Our students are prepared for graduate school or careers in environmental geology, geotechnical consulting, hydrology and the energy and mineral industries. As a Hanover geology graduate, you will be equipped with the knowledge and skills to address critical issues that will shape our planet’s future.

At Hanover, students use chemistry to better understand the issues faced by modern society. Maybe your interest is life-saving antibiotics or new kinds of synthetic fibers. Maybe you want to learn how to measure pesticides in drinking water or the antioxidants in food. It’s all possible to explore in the superbly equipped labs at your disposal.

You’ll begin with an introduction to the breadth of chemistry, followed by a deeper study of advanced subjects. Your program will culminate with a collaborative research project in which you’ll explore an area of interest to you, with the help from a member of Hanover’s highly specialized faculty. Along the way, you will become a person who speaks the language of chemistry, thinks critically and solves problems.

Whether you plan to major in music or pursue musical interests along with your other studies, you’ll find Hanover’s active music program enriches the lives of everyone in the community.

Majors and non-majors alike participate fully in private lessons, solo performances and group performances.

If you are a music major, you can choose between a choral or instrumental program and gain practical experience that launches your career or graduate studies.

As you study human behavior and the mind with Hanover’s accomplished, widely published faculty, you’ll learn that all of life is a process of inquiry. Unlike any other school, you’ll design and conduct your own research projects at least four times in the course of your studies.

In fact, all seniors present their projects at an undergraduate research conference. For hands-on experience, maybe you’ll conduct low-level therapy in controlled situations on campus. Or maybe you’ll intern with a local psychiatric hospital or community agency. As a psychology student at Hanover, you will have a better understanding of how and why people act, think and feel the way they do.
