ACADEMICS
At Westlake, we embrace a culture of learning-by-doing. In over 60 labs across three schools, our students are engaged in challenging problem-solving processes for the community and empowered to conduct their own experiments where they acquire analytical and practical skills.
By building world-class research programs and centers, the School of Life Sciences strives to pursue questions fundamental to our understanding of biology and disease and to develop enabling technologies that benefit humanity and advance human health. The School is dedicated to cultivating future leaders in biomedical research, with an emphasis on multidisciplinary training in biology, chemistry, medicine, and engineering.
The School of Science will comprise the departments of Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry and plans to recruit around 90 tenure-track and tenured faculty within the next few years. We seek teachers/scholars around the world with innovative ideas to advance the frontiers in human knowledge and to promote sustainable improvement in human living conditions. The pursuit of these ideas through scholarly research, interdisciplinary collaboration and innovative education is the focus of our mission.
