Show Arts, Letters and Science Pre-Medicine—Students intending to go into medicine should take the basic area requirements and the following courses: Chemistry 24, 25, 26, Mathematics 14, 18, 21 in their freshman year; Quantitative Analysis and Zoology 4, 105, 110 while they are sophomores. In their junior year they should take Chemistry 131, 132, 133; Physics 51 through 56; Zoology 145 and 130. Elective courses should be selected from among the humanities and social sciences in order to give a broad cultural background for the study of medicine. Family Life 33 is strongly recommended. Pre-Dentistry—Students intending to go into dentistry should take the college basic and area requirements and the following courses: 15 hours from Zoology 4, 7, 105, 110, 130; Chemistry 24, 25, 26, 131, 132, 133; Mathematics 14, 18, 21; Physics 51 through 56. Electives should be completed to provide extensive general educational background for the study of dentistry. Pre-Veterinary Medicine—Students who plan to enter a school of Veterinary Medicine should complete college basic and area requirements and the following courses: Zoology 4; Botany 1 or 2; Chemistry 24, 25, 26, 131, 132, 133; Mathematics 14, 18; Physics 51 through 56. It is recommended that the other courses to complete two years of college work be selected from among language-arts, biological sciences, business and social sciences. Pre-Pharmacy—Students planning a pharmacy career should consult the catalog of the school of pharmacy they plan to enter. Many such schools are fairly liberal in their entrance requirements, namely that students meet college or university entrance requirements after having graduated from an accredited high school. The following freshman year courses will aid the student in complying with the first year of these curricula; college basic and area requirements; Botany 1 or 2; Economics 1; Chemistry 24, 25, 26; Mathematics 14, 18. Other Biologically Oriented Careers—A number of professions and careers which are essentially biologically oriented may be commenced by taking one or more years of study at Weber State College, namely, optometry, podiatry, (Chiropody), osteopathy, wildlife management, etc. Students should consult the catalog of the school to which they plan to transfer and seek advice of departmental counselors who are available to assist the student in planning his program and in making his transfer to another school.
