This program is described earlier in this College of Science section of the catalog. HERBARIUM The Herbarium of Weber State is housed on the fourth floor of the Science Lab Building and contains more than 18,000 preserved plant specimens collected from Utah and the Western United States. This collection serves as an important reference for students, faculty, biologists, and all others who need to know the identity of plants, or learn something about their geographic distributions and ecological associations. It also serves as the repository of the plants collected for the Institute of American Indian Botany. The Institute is dedicated to the study of American Indian Botany and provides a place where all of those who have interest can learn, conduct research, teach, and preserve for generations yet to come, this segment of our great American heritage. 253 Botany Major BACHELOR DECREE (B.S. AND B.A.) » Program Prerequisite: Not required. » Minor: A minor is required.
