Description
The Astronomy minor at Le Moyne College invites students from all academic backgrounds to explore the universe with curiosity, wonder, and intellectual rigor. All coursework is algebra-based—no mathematics beyond algebra is required—making the minor accessible to students in any major across campus. Through a blend of observational techniques and the study of the physical principles that govern celestial phenomena, students gain both scientific understanding and a deeper appreciation of humanity’s place in the cosmos. In keeping with Le Moyne’s Jesuit tradition of integrative learning, the minor encourages connections between astronomy and broader questions of meaning, perspective, and global citizenship.
