Show Arts, Letters and Science — Zoology Arts, Letters and Science — Zoology 420; Chemistry 121, 122, 123, 311, 312, 313; Mathematics 105, 106, 107; Physics 111, 112, 113, 114, 115, 116. 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 211; Botany 110 or 112; Chemistry 121, 122, 123, 311, 312, 313, Mathematics 105, 106, 107, 111; Physics 111 through 116. 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 110 or 112; Economics 101; Chemistry 121, 122, 123; Mathematics 105, 106, 107. The second year should include Chemistry 311, 312, 313 and Physics 111 through 116. 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.
