arabab, the Integrated Science Program at Northwestern University (which has been around now for 30 years) was actually designed to integrate math into the science curriculum. So, for example, NU will have three different entry level physics classes: one will be less math based, the second will be more calculus based, and the third (the ISP one) will go even beyond that.

One of the beauties of the ISP is that it’s a small program, which means the ISP classes are also small (a few talented students outside of ISP can be referred into a class on a case by case basis.) It’s kind of like taking a mini-CalTech and plopping it down into a more vibrantly diverse campus like NU.
