Support Math and Science at Belmont Abbey
Biology & Biochemistry
This Founders’ Day, we are fundraising to expand our undergraduate research opportunities for science majors.
Through the generosity of a donor like you, we have a newly renovated science building that added new biochemistry and chemistry labs on the first floor and transformed existing second-floor chemistry labs into physics labs and classroom space. This renovation has improved the educational experience for our students and equips the faculty members in all of our science programs
Through the support raised during last year’s Founders’ Day Challenge, we were able to purchase a large piece of laboratory equipment and able to fund the Teaching Assistant Program.
When you make a gift today, your gift will provide the necessary support to:
- Send students to conferences and fund travel opportunities.
- Bring in further dynamic speakers
- Provide academic scholarships
- Improve classroom facilities, especially by purchasing additional whiteboards.
- Fund undergraduate research, equipment, materials and stipends.
Mathematics and Physics
Through Mathematics and Physics students come to understand mathematical language and ideas, which will promote abstract reasoning and quantitative literacy.
When you make a gift today, your gift will provide the necessary support to:
- Send students to conferences and fund travel opportunities.
- Bring in further dynamic speakers
- Provide academic scholarships
- Improve classroom facilities, especially by purchasing additional whiteboards.
- Fund undergraduate research, equipment, materials and stipends.
Your gift, of any amount, will raise the next generation of ethically-minded doctors, nurses, chemists, biologists, and physicists!
And, as a special thank you during the Founders’ Day Challenge, with a gift of $25 or more to the Science Department you receive a limited edition baseball cap of your choosing.

“The Belmont Abbey math department provided me with a quality education that prepared me for graduate school and employment. The high levels of support I received from my professors led to me getting a graduate assistant position at UNC Charlotte, and the high level of rigor of the classes allowed me to be successful in attaining my Ph. D. When I was hired by a national lab after graduation, my broad education gave me the critical thinking skills to problem solve and the leadership skills to head several projects. I am grateful to my math professors at Belmont Abbey for helping me to reach my full potential”

“My experiences with Biology at the Abbey have more than prepared me for the rigors of Medical School. In my classes I find that I can often grasp a basic science concept and move directly into clinical applications and more advanced principles thanks to the depth and breadth of topics covered in my four years with Abbey Biology. Biochemistry, Cell Biology, and Physiology have been particularly helpful. More than this, Abbey Biology prepared me for collegial relationships with my classmates and professors, which is indispensable for learning medicine and providing excellent clinical care.”
