Show quirements 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, 11 or 2, 21; 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, 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.
