Higher Degrees.-The general rules of the Graduate Division are followed, with the following additions: Preliminary Requirements for Higher Degrees.--No courses are prescribed as prerequisite for entering upon candidacy for higher degrees. In general, however, the student's preparation will play an important rôle in determining the length of time which he will have to spend before obtaining the degree. Not only the candidates for the doctor's degree and the master's degree, but also the candidates for the teacher's certificate majoring in political science are required to take in the department an oral examination covering the field of political science and in particular American and comparative government and ancient and modern political theories, and therefore the better the candidate's equipment the less time will he have to spend taking courses which will prepare him in those fields. In general, jurisprudence (particularly Roman law, general jurisprudence, constitutional law, common law, international law) logic, psychology, economics (particularly public finance, history of economic theories, principles of economics, and statistics), and general and constitutional history are the fields which, in addition to political science, should be covered as far as possible by students intending to obtain the best preparation for higher degrees. The knowledge of French and some other foreign language (e.g. Spanish, Italian, Latin, German, according to the special field) is usually indispensable. High School Teacher's Recommendation.—Candidates with a major in political science must have taken a general course descriptive of the United States' and most important European governments (such as 1A-1B), a general encyclopaedic course including a review of the history of political theories and of modern political institutions and problems (such as 6A-6B), and at least 18 units of upper division major work, including a course in American federal government, a course in American state government, a course in municipal government, a course in public administration or in municipal administration, and a course of reading and discussion of political writings. The total work taken in the department or approved by it as equivalent must be not less than 30 units. The final oral examination covers American and foreign (including state and municipal) government, political theories, and either history of political institutions, American foreign relations, or the political background and issues of the Great War. The department grants the recommended minor in political science at its discretion to students who have distinguished themselves in a marked way in the courses which they have taken in the department. Special Preparation for the Teaching of Civics.-During the spring and fall semesters, 1920, special upper division and graduate courses in the teaching of civics (instruction in government) are offered by the department, in order to help improve the teaching of civics in the high schools. Master's Degree.-Each candidate's program is considered on its merits. As a rule candidates are required to pursue a course of studies approved by the department, covering at least 20 units of graduate and upper division major work, including an acceptable thesis (2-4 units). They are required, furthermore, to pass a final oral examination covering the subject-matter of the thesis and also the fields covered in the examination of candidates for the high school teacher's recommendation. Doctor of Philosophy.-Each candidate's course of studies is outlined in accordance with the exigencies of his case. The preliminary and final examinations cover not only the subject-matter of the thesis, but government (national and local, including state and municipal) of the United States and of European countries, international law and international relations comparative constitutional law, and political theories.

Instruction in public health is given in part in San Francisco in the Medical School and in part in Berkeley. In San Francisco the laboratory facilities include the laboratories of the University Hospital and the Hooper Foundation for Medical Research, while clinical opportunities are offered by the material of the University Hospital Out-Patient Department and the University wards of the San Francisco Hospital. In Berkeley the laboratory of hygiene occupies the same building with the State Hygienic Laboratory. The results of the general epidemiological investigations conducted by the State Board of Health, as well as special investigations on malaria, poliomyelitis, typhoid carriers, and rabies are at the disposal of students. Special research problems may be undertaken under the joint supervision of these laboratories. A training of great practical value to those intending to serve in municipal laboratories is thus assured. Modern health centers are maintained in Oakland, and Berkeley. The manufacture of antitoxins, vaccines, and other biological products may be observed at the Cutter Laboratory, which is situated in Berkeley. There are numerous industrial establishments including a knitting mill, a soap factory, candy factory, fruit cannery, ink works, and a machine shop in Berkeley. The neighboring city of Oakland has a complete system of medical inspection of schools as well as several examples of the most recent development of school architecture, including out-ofdoor schools. Students have been invited by the Oakland School Department to conduct investigations under supervision. The conduct of milk depots and day nurseries may also be studied in Oakland. In connection with the course in health surveys, students may visit a quarantine station, an immigration station, a station of the U. S. Public Health Service for the investigation of plague, and may observe municipal health administration in several cities in the vicinity of the University ranging in size from 50,000 inhabitants to nearly ten times that number. The courses dealing with medical entomology and the sanitation of the milk supply are given by the divisions of entomology and veterinary science in the College of Agriculture. The division of veterinary science maintains a certified dairy which serves as a laboratory for instruction in milk sanitation. This division also carries on experimental work in bovine tuberculosis. The department of civil engineering offers a group of courses in sanitary engineering. A practical study of California conditions is made possible by close affiliation with the State Sanitary Engineering Laboratory. An appreciation of the social character of public health conservation, and an insight into the statistical methods involved are important parts of the training of the sanitarian. Instruction in these subjects is conducted by the department of economies, which is in close relation with the Associated Charities of San Francisco. COURSE IN PUBLIC HEALTH There are three curricula in public health, designated by the letters A, B, and C. Curriculum A is intended for general students in public health; curriculum B is intended for students holding the degree of Bachelor of Science from the College of Civil Engineering; curriculum C is intended for students of medicine and may be substituted for the second half of the fourth year, and fifth, or interne year, in the Medical School, without affecting candidacy for the degree of Doctor of Medicine. While enrolled in the Medical School, students in the Public Health course are subject to the usual fee of $75 per half-year. On completion of any of these curricula the degree of Graduate in Public Health (Gr.P.H.) is conferred. With the permission of the Committee on Public Health Study-Lists, courses may be substituted for those shown in the following curricula to the extent of not more than six units in any half-year. CURRICULUM A A four-year course, three years in the College of Letters and Science, and one year in the Medical School. Requirements for Admission to the Course.-Junior standing (64 units) or evidence of an equivalent preparation; a reading knowledge of French or German; Physics 2A-2B; Chemistry 1A-1B, 8 and 9; Bacteriology 1; Zoology 1A-1B. The student is advised to avoid strict specialization in science and to devote his elective units as far as practicable to subjects of general culture. In order to satisfy the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts based on the first two years of this curriculum, the student must complete at least thirty-six units selected from the following list of courses. The thirty-six units must be distributed among the subjects as indicated. In order to satisfy the requirement for the degree of Master of Arts in Public Health, or in order to proceed to the final year of this curriculum which is given in the Medical School, the student must have completed twelve units chosen from the following list of courses, in addition to the thirty-six units completed for the bachelor's degree. The curriculum for students who hold an academic bachelor's degree based in part on the curriculum of an acceptable training school for nurses, will be determined for each candidate by the Committee on Public Health Study-Lists. First month.-Lectures and out-patient clinics in the University of California Hospital. Such work will be arranged for each individual student in the various medical, surgical, and children's clinics Units Second month.-Work with the Social Service Department of the University of California Medical School 4 Third month.-Work with the San Francsico Health Department.
