Whitney Young; Associate Professors, Darrell J. Graff, David S. Havertz; Assistant Professors, Earl A. Jenne, J. Neil Jensen, Roger M. Richins, Bert W. Winterton. The Department of Zoology offers courses in the departmental major and minor, teaching major and minor and core courses serving as pre-professional training for medicine, dentistry, etc. Students following prescribed programs for pre-medi- cine, pre-dentistry, etc., may have departmental requirements for graduation waived which are inconsistent with professional curricula. Upon submission of equivalent courses to and approval by the Department Chairman and Dean of School, students may be recommended for graduation as Zoology majors. ZOOLOGY It is recommended a student majoring in Zoology select courses in an area of principal interest; invertebrates, vertebrates, physiology, ecology, animal biology, etc. Advisors will assist the student in the determination of a curriculum which will be best for a particular field of major concentration. Zoology Departmental Major—Students should take the following courses in addition to the college specific and area requirements: Zoology 211 or 160; 212 or 405; 499; (2 hrs.) a course in Ecology; an upper division course in Genetics; an upper division course in Physiology; and an additional 20 hours of approved Zoology classes; Botany 110 and 364 or 160 or 425; Mathematics 105 or 106 or 107; Physics 101 or 111, 112, 113, 114, 115, 116; Chemistry 111, 112, 141, or 121, 122, 123, 311, 312, 313; (the more advanced Zoology, Chemistry, Mathematics, and Physics courses are recommended if graduate work is intended). Zoology majors are encouraged to take Zoology 211 in preference to Zoology 160. Credit will not be given for both Zoology 160 and 211. No credit will be given toward the major for a class grade lower than "C." Students planning to receive a B.S. degree in a combined curriculum (three years at W.S.C. and one year at a medical or dental school) must complete a minimum of 140 credit hours including the specific and area requirements as well as the basic courses of the major. Zoology Departmental Minor—A minor in Zoology may be completed by taking a minimum of 25 hours of approved courses in this subject, including Zoology 211 or 160, and 212 or 405. Zoology Teaching Major—Zoology teaching majors should complete the college specific courses and area requirements in addition to those required for Utah State Department of Education teacher certification and the following courses: Zoology 211 or 160; 212 or 405; 464; 465 or 466; 467 or 468; 445; 381; and an additional ten hours of Zoology classes; Botany 110, 364 or 160; Chemistry 111, 112, 141, or 121, 122, 123; Geology 111; Physics 101; and Mathematics 105. Zoology 330, 201 or 420 or 423 and Microbiology 111 are also recommended. Zoology Teaching Minor—The Zoology teaching minor should include the following courses: Zoology 211 or 160; 212 or 405; 445; 464 and 381. A minimum of 28 hours required. Biology Composite Teaching Major—See Biology Composite Teaching Major, School of Education. Pre-Medicine—Students intending to go into medicine should take the basic area requirements and the following courses. Chemistry 121, 122, 123, Mathematics 105, 106, 107 in their freshman year; Quantitative Analysis and Zoology 211, 405, 410 while they are sophomores. In their junior year they should take Chemistry 311, 312, 313; Physics 111 through 116; Zoology 445 and 330. 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 140 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 211, 212, 405, 410, 330; 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; 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. 216 217 |
