Scope and Contents

The College of Science and Mathematics Records consists of the records of the college and its previous iterations throughout CSUN's history. Records include program brochures, event fliers, department records, and information on the San Fernando Solar Observatory and the Donald E. Bianchi Planetarium. Materials have been broken into six series: Office of the Dean (1988-1998), Biology Department (1988-2003), Chemistry and Biochemistry Department (1988), Geological Sciences Department (1981-1989), Mathematics Department (2002), Physics and Astronomy Department (1981-2003). 
Series I, Office of the Dean, consists of materials relating to College-wide business and events.
Series II, Biology Department, consists of materials produced by the faculty and staff of the Biology Department.
Series III, Chemistry and Biochemistry Department, consists of newsletters.
Series IV, Geological Sciences Department, consists of materials produced by the faculty and staff of the Geological Sciences Department.
Series V, Mathematics Department, consists of materials produced by the faculty and staff of the Mathematics Department.
Series VI, Physics and Astronomy Department, consists of materials produced by the faculty and staff of the Physics and Astronomy Department including the plantarium and solar observatory.
