You need to check the course catalogs really carefully and see what courses are listed at each school. Once you check it out, then you may see that one is better than the other for science. I would probably go with UMass for three reasons - first, it's in Boston! Second, if you decided to change majors or you wanted more courses, then you could transfer to UMass Amherst without losing any credits; and Third, there are way more opportunities for research spots or internships in Boston than in Springfield.
Good luck - we need more science majors!

UMass-Boston is not a terribly good school. The best colleges in Boston are Harvard and MIT. Next best are BC, Tufts, Brandeis, Holy Cross Beyond these are BU, Notheastern, Wheaton, Stonehill, Emerson Then finally Suffolk, UMass Boston, Wentworth, Emmanuel

Well, since I've never heard of AIC and I lived about 20 min away from it for 4 years (apparently), I'd say UMass Boston. Matt's right, UMass Amherst has excellent science programs - go to Boston and then try to transfer. Amherst is much higher rated than Boston.
