MEDICAL STAFF, SAN FRANCISCO HOSPITAL W. W. KERR, M.D., Physician in Chief. ADMISSION OF STUDENTS The medical college of the University of California, in common with the best medical schools of the country, requires a definite collegiate preparation for entrance into the medical curriculum, which is briefly as follows: The student must present a Junior Certificate of this university or its equivalent. He must give evidence of sufficient training in physics, chemistry, and biology to enable him to pursue with profit the curriculum of the medical college, and should possess a reading knowledge of French or German. By a reading knowledge of French or German, two years of collegiate work or its equivalent is understood. The following courses now offered may be regarded as representing the minimum of satisfactory preparation in the sciences named: Physics 2A, 2B, 3B or 4B; Chemistry 1A, 1B, 8A, 8B, 9; Zoology 1A, 5. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF REQUIRED COURSES FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF 2A-2B, 4A-4B. General Physics. PHYSICS Professor LEWIS and Associate Professor RAYMOND. Le tures with experimental illustration, recitations, and problems. Mechanics, properties of matter, heat, sound, light, energy, transformations, electricity, and magnetism. 2A-2B. Lectures. Professor LEWIS. 3 hrs., throughout the year; 2 units each half-year. Tu Th S, 11. The completion of this course admits students of the colleges of Engineering to course la; other students either to course la or to course 4A. No prerequisite. 4A-4B. Recitations and Problems. Professor LEWIS and Associate Professor RAYMOND. 2 hrs., throughout the year; 2 units each half-year. W F, 9. Prerequisite: matriculation subject 11, or course 2A-2B. Some knowledge of elementary plane geometry is desirable. 3A-3B. Physical Measurement. Assistant Professor MINOR. Experimental work in mechanics, properties of matter, heat, sound, light, electricity and magnetism, requiring quantitative results. Methods are selected so as to show instructive relations of physical principles, and their adaptation to practical problems. Laboratory exercises twice a week. These courses are usually taken in conjunction with 2A-2B, 4A-4B. Prerequisite: matriculation physics, subject 11. 6 hrs., throughout the year; 2 units each half-year. Tu Th, 1–4. CHEMISTRY 1A-1B. General Inorganic Chemistry and Qualitative Analysis. Three hours lectures and quiz, and four hours laboratory work, throughout the year; 5 units each half-year. Lectures and Quiz. Assistant Professor HILDEBRAND, Professor LEWIS, Assistant Professors BOOTH, BRAY and TOLMAN, Dr. BURKE, and Two sections: M W F, 9; M W F, 10. Laboratory. Assistant Professors BOOTH and BRAY, Professor LEWIS, Four sections: I, M F, 1-3; II, Tu Th, 9–11; III, Tu Th, 1-3; IV, 3A-3B. Laboratory: General Chemistry and Qualitative Analysis. This course is identical with the laboratory part of 1A-1B, is open only to those who have already taken the lecture course formerly known as 1A-1B, and will be abandoned after the year 1913-14. 8A-8B. Elements of Organic Chemistry. Assistant Professor BIDDLE. An introductory study of the compounds of carbon. Recitations and lectures with experimental illustrations. Laboratory course 9 should, if possible, accompany this course. 2 hrs., throughout the year. Lectures, Tu Th, 8. Fortnightly quiz, hour to be arranged, probably M or Tu, 4. 9. Elements of Organic Chemistry: Laboratory. Assistant Professor BIDDLE. A comparative experimental study of the physical properties and chemical reactions of the more commonly occurring classes of organic substances. Supplementary to course 8A-8B and open to all students pursuing that course. (Students in the college of Chemistry must enroll for three units in this course.) 6 to 9 hrs., either half-year- 2 to 3 units. M W, M F, or M W F, 1-4. 1A. General Zoology. ZOOLOGY Professor KoFOID, Mr. STORER, and Mr. McDONALD. An introduction to the facts and principles of animal biology, with special reference to the evolution of animal life. Lectures 2 hrs., demonstrations 4 hrs., first half-year; 4 units. Lectures Tu Th, 10. Demonstrations, four sections: I, M F, 2–4; II, Tu Th, 8-10; III, Tu Th, 2-4; IV, W, 2-4, S, 8-10. Laboratory exercises are essentially illustrative of lectures and are based on the examination of living and prepared specimens, supplemented by models and charts. 5. Elementary Embryology. Dr. LONG and Mr. CHANDLER. 8 hrs., second half-year; 4 units. Lecture Tu Th, 8; laboratory Tu Th S, 10-12. Prerequisite: course la. In preparation for these studies it may be mentioned that high school physics and chemistry are necessary in order to enroll in the beginning university courses in the same subjects. Whereas these requirements as specified will be accepted for admission in the medical school, it should be pointed out that it is highly desirable that the student should not content himself with the acquisition of a Junior Certificate, but should take at least three years of college work, if possible. By this means, not only is more time offered for work in subjects of general culture outside the scientific requirements, but by a combined seven year course (three years as an undergraduate in the university and four years in the medical school) the two degrees of B.S. and M.D. may be obtained. THE COMBINED COURSE Students in the Colleges of Letters, Social Sciences, or Natural Sciences who have received the Junior Certificate and who, in addition to the work of the Junior Certificate, have completed a full year of work in the Upper Division, may, at the beginning of their fourth or senior year in the University, register as students in the College of Medicine and, upon completion of the first year in the College of Medicine, may receive the degree of A.B., B.L., or B.S. Students who enter the College of Medicine in accordance with the foregoing provision will be expected normally to have completed 94 units of University work in the academic departments, including such work in major courses as may be acceptable to the faculty of the college in which the student proposes to take his academic degree. |
