Show Arts, Letters and Science Arts, Letters and Science assist students planning their program of studies. It is suggested that students majoring in Botany select with the aid of an advisor the required supporting courses which better prepare them for graduate work or professional work at the baccalaureate level. Botany Departmental Major: A student majoring in Botany will be required to take in addition to the area requirements, 45 credits including the following required courses: Botany 1, 2, 110, 120, 145, 162, 197, 198, 199. In addition, the following supporting courses are required: Chemistry 11, 12, 13; or 24, 25, 26; 131, 132, 133; Mathematics 14, Physics 5 or 51 to 56; Zoology 1 or 4 and Zoology 7. The more advanced chemistry and physics series and additional mathematics are recommended for students contemplating graduate studies. Botany Departmental Minor: Students minoring in Botany are required to take Botany 1 and 2, and 15 upper division credits from the following: Botany 100, 110, 111, 114, 120, 121, 134, 145, 147, 150, 161, 163, 180, 185, 191, 192, 197, 198, 199. Botany Teaching Major: Teaching majors are required to take the same botany classes as Botany Departmental Majors. In addition, the following supporting courses are required: Zoology 181; Chemistry 11, 12, 13; Mathematics 14, 18; Physics 5; Zoology 1 or 4. Botany Teaching Minor: Teaching minors in Botany should take the following: Botany 1, and 2, and 60, 161 or 162, and 121, or 120; Zoology 181 and 5 to 6 hours of the following: Botany 110, 111, 134, 145, 147, 150, 163, 185, 197, 198, 199. Biology Composite Teaching Major—See Biology Composite Teaching Major, School of Education, page 246. Pre-Agriculture—Two years of a pre-professional general agriculture program are offered at Weber State College. Basic requirements: For Animal Science majors: Botany 1, 50, Zoology 4, 20, 30. For Plant Science majors: Botany 1, 2, 50, 100, 120, 121, 163; Zoology 30. For Soil Science majors: Botany 1, 50, 121; Geology 21. In addition, all college basic and area course requirements should be met including English 1, 2, 3 Physical Education; Chemistry 11, 12, 13, or 24, 25, 26 Mathematics 14, 18; Physics 5 or 51 to 56; English 5; History 5 and Economics 5 are recommended. This program should be planned with the aid of an adviser. Pre-Forestry and Pre-Range Management: Two year preprofessional programs in Forestry, Range Management, and Wildlife Management are offered at Weber State College. Basic requirements include: English 1, 2, and 3; three quarters of Physical Education; Botany 1, 2, 3, 4, 50, 120 and 162; Zoology 12; Mathematics 14, 18, and 21; Chemistry 11, 12, and 13; Economics 5, Geology 21; and Physics 5. In addition to the English classes listed, other classes in the humanities and social sciences should be included. Other Careers: A number of professions which are botani- c.allv oriented may be started at Weber State College by taking one or more years in required subjects. Students selecting a curriculum in Soil Physics, Soil Chemistry, Soil-Plant Nutrition, Space Food Research, Landscape Architecture, and Weed Control Technology should consult an advisor to aid them in choosing the curriculum for the particular area of interest.
