The College of Natural Sciences of the University of Puerto Rico, Río Piedras Campus was established in 1943, in the city of San Juan in the central northern area of the island.

The college annually admits approximately 2,700 students, including those who continue graduate studies at the Medical Sciences Campus

One of our goals is to increase the number of students who go on to graduate studies either at our campus or outside. About 300 students annually go on to graduate studies in Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics, and Physics. >>more
