MESSAGE FROM THE DEAN

DR. CAROLE STONEKING was appointed Dean of the David R. Hayworth College of Arts & Sciences in 2006 after serving for many years as the Chair of the Department of Religion and Philosophy. Dean Stoneking earned a Bachelor of Arts degree from Rhodes College, and a Master of Divinity and Ph.D. from Duke University.

High Point University is proud of its historic commitment to a liberal arts education that furnishes our graduates with the broad knowledge, transferable skills, ethics and values they will need to become accomplished and responsible citizens. Anchored in the liberal arts tradition, HPU’s David R. Hayworth College of Arts & Sciences continues to innovate, advancing new educational methods and degree programs that equip our graduates to thrive in a rapidly changing, increasingly interconnected world.

Twenty-first century education faces challenges that were unheard of a generation or two ago. Colleges and universities must adapt to patterns of work and life in which most graduates leave their first job within three years. Within five years, more than half of today’s college freshmen will work in jobs that do not currently exist, just as “social media director” and “cloud computing consultant” did not exist a decade ago. By focusing on the development of critical reasoning, research and communication skills, a liberal arts education provides an ideal preparation for today’s workplace, where employers increasingly search for workers who combine in-depth knowledge with excellent problem solving and analytic capabilities.

In both our general education core and our degree programs, students acquire and practice the knowledge, skills and attributes that are essential for success in today’s global economy. The College of Arts & Sciences programs engage students in collaborative problem solving, internships, research and creative works and community engagement in which students apply theory to practice, gaining valuable real-world experience. In addition, HPU’s liberal arts education enriches our students’ lives by making them more aware of the rich panoply of the human experience and more appreciative of the wonder and mystery of nature. A liberal arts education does not end with our graduation exercises at Commencement; instead, it encourages a lifelong journey of learning, adapting and innovating values that accrue in a life well-lived.

Thank you for considering High Point University and the David R. Hayworth College of Arts & Sciences. After looking closely at the programs and departments featured in this brochure, I am sure you will appreciate just how extraordinary our university is.

Physics

THE NATURAL SCIENCES

Rising HPU seniors, Thomas Boudreaux and Kyle Corcoran, joined Dr. Brad Barlow, assistant professor of astrophysics, on his fourth trip with HPU students to the Andes Mountains to observe stars with the CTIO/SMARTS 0.9-meter telescope at the Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory, one of the most well-known observing sites for professional astronomers in the world. While at the observatory, they worked with researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill to observe pulsating white dwarfs, which are dead, remnant stars that show variable brightness due to vibrations.

The pulsations are useful in helping determine important properties of the star, such as mass, radius, temperature and density.

CREATE GLOBALLY RELEVANT SOLUTIONS Physics is the study of the universe, from fundamental particles to galaxies and beyond. Its language is mathematics, its domain is the universe, and its applications are as diverse as science itself. A primary goal of physics is to discover the underlying laws that govern matter and its interactions. HPU’s Department of Physics believes that students should approach their university education as scientists — by posing interesting questions and exploring new answers. Classes, lab experiences and undergraduate research projects with faculty equip physics majors with a strong understanding of fundamental physics. They are also equipped with tools for lifelong inquiry: an expanded capacity to solve complex problems within and beyond the field of physics, and the ability to communicate clearly and effectively through oral and written presentations.

Students also develop expertise in experimental design and data analysis, electronics and instrumentation, computational modeling, computer programming and the preparation of scientific proposals, posters and articles.

HPU’s program is one of the few in the country to begin undergraduate research in the freshman year with a yearlong course titled, “Research and Scientific Writing in Physics”. Through this opportunity, students develop the tools of scientific inquiry and initiate an independent project with a faculty mentor. Research culminates in the junior or senior year with an in-depth research project. These early research experiences have helped place HPU’s juniors, sophomores and even freshmen in highly competitive paid summer research experiences such as the National Science Foundation’s Research Experiences for Undergraduates program and NASA’s Motivating Undergraduates in Science and Technology program.

MEET ALAN VASQUEZ SOTO, Class of 2018, B.S. Physics and a B.A. Computer Science Vasquez Soto is pursuing his Ph.D. at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in Physics. “I remember being a shy student going into college. As I grew at HPU, I very quickly became more outgoing and confident in how I carried myself. The faculty, especially in physics, were phenomenal in mentoring me in a way that gave me a considerable advantage over undergraduate students at other universities. This became very clear when I landed an awesome internship with a company called, Greenway Solutions in Charlotte, North Carolina, where I interacted with Fortune 500 companies. Later, I went on to be accepted into my top choice graduate school.”
