Monk, Head; In addition to providing courses in principles of plant biology for general students, the botany department offers programs leading toward professional careers. Teaching majors as well as departmental majors and minors are available in this area. The program of courses outlined for botany majors should be considered as suggestive only. With the help of their advisor, students should plan their program so they can specialize in one of the three areas: the pathology, the physiology or the taxonomy of plants. Teaching majors in botany should take the same courses advised for departmental majors except that education courses necessary for certification are to be substituted for electives and certain other courses as recommended by the advisor. Minors in this field should take a minimum of twenty hours of general botany courses including one upper division course. Courses of Instruction 1.
