Colleges & Schools
Four colleges, one campus
A brighter tomorrow, together.
Every Tumbleberry major belongs to one of four colleges. Each has its own dean, advising team and student spaces, and all of them share the same trails, labs and libraries.
Our colleges
Where your major lives
Your college is your academic home base. It is where you will find your advisor, your department office and the students who share your interests.

Spotlight: College of Science & Engineering
Learn it in the lab, test it on the trail
The College of Science & Engineering is our largest college, with 20 majors, 2,350 undergraduates and nine graduate programs. Classes are small by design: the median intro lab has 18 students, and every section is taught by faculty, not teaching assistants.
Departments
- Biology and Wildlife Conservation
- Chemistry and Biochemistry, chaired by Dr. Elena Vasquez
- Computer Science and Data Science
- Earth and Environmental Sciences
- Engineering (Civil, Electrical, Environmental, Mechanical)
- Mathematics, Physics and Psychology
Where you will learn
Most courses meet in the Alder Science Center, which houses 32 teaching and research labs and a rooftop greenhouse used by botany and agriculture classes. Field courses travel 40 minutes up Ridgeline Highway to the 600-acre Evergreen Field Station.
Research from day one
Nearly 70 percent of our science and engineering majors join a faculty research project before graduation, and many present at the Berry Symposium each April.
College office: Alder Science Center, Suite 140. Monday to Friday, 8 AM to 5 PM. (541) 555-0230, cse@tumbleberry.site.
Academic leadership
Meet the deans
Each college and school is led by a dean who still teaches. Reach their offices directly with questions about programs, advising or transfer credit.

Voices from the colleges
Our first-years run real experiments in their first month. By junior year, many of them are training the new students in my lab.
I take marketing in the morning and help guide a trip with the Outdoor Program that afternoon. The business school treats that experience as part of my education.
The simulation lab at Bramble made my first hospital rotation feel familiar. I had already practiced the hard conversations.
