SUMMARY OF REQUIREMENTS FOR THE JUNIOR CERTIFICATE, INCLUDING REQUIREMENTS FOR MATRICULATION.

Units of Credit.-In this table the normal amount of work represented both by preparatory or high school subjects, and by the University courses, is specified quantitatively. In the University a unit signifies one hour per week of recitation or lecture, with preparation therefor, during one half-year. A course of study taken in the preparatory school for one year at five periods per week is valued at 3 units. Work in laboratory or field, or other work not requiring out-of-class preparation, is estimated at a lower rate than recitations and lectures.

[The requirements are stated in "units;" see above for explanation.]

1. Matriculation.-The candidate for admission must have chosen his 45 units in such a way as to have a total of 12 units of subjects designated as "advanced," including History and Government of the United States, and including one of the following sciences, if taken, with laboratory work, in the third or fourth year of the high school course: Physics, Chemistry, Botany, Zoology, Physiology. Students who enter the University without this required work in science may complete this matriculation requirement only by adding to the other Lower Division work required in the University a 3-unit laboratory course in science. The preparatory subjects listed as "advanced" are 4, 5, 7, 9, 11, 12 (excluding the sciences of the first and second years of the high school), 13b, 14 15a3, 15a, 1563, 15b*.

Applicants entering the Colleges of Engineering, or the College of Chemistry, or expecting to take up other courses of study presupposing a knowledge of the elements of Physics or Chemistry, with laboratory practice (matriculation subjects 11, 12b), should provide for this work either during the high school course or during the University summer sessions. No equivalent for this work is offered during the regular sessions of the University. Applicants for the College of Letters, the College of Social Sciences, or for other courses of study requiring matriculation Latin, subject 6, should notice that the University does not offer instruction in this subject either during the regular sessions or during the summer sessions.

2. Students at Large.-Students at large are admitted to the University provided they have credit for 45 matriculation units (see page 52). They will be granted the Junior Certificate as students at large on completing the requirements given in this column and on passing an examination in Subject A, but will be granted the Junior Certificate as candidates for degrees only upon the completion of the requirements for the Certificate as prescribed for regular students.

3. College of Letters.-The requirements in Greek and Latin are as follows: matriculation Latin, 6 units; either matriculation or college Latin, 6 units; either matriculation or college Greek, 9 units; college Greek, 3 units; college Greek or Latin, or both, 6 units. Total, 30 units.

4. Colleges of Letters, Social Sciences, Natural Sciences, Commerce, and Agriculture; and students at large. The prescribed work in science must be chosen from the following fundamental courses:

The General Science Course offered by the Committee on Prescribed Seience.

Physics 1A-1B, 2A-2B, and 3A-3B.

Astronomy 1, 2A, and 5.

Geography 1A, 1B.

Chemistry 1A-1B, 1C, 1D, 3A-3B, 5A, 5B, 6, 8A, 8B, and 40.

Zoology 1 and 2.

Physiology 1.

Pathology 1 (Bacteriology).

Palaeontology 1.

Geology 1A, 1B.

Mineralogy 1A, 1B.
Agriculture 8.
Entomology 1.

All references in these notes to specific courses of instruction apply to the courses as designated in the Announcement of Courses for 1911-12. 5. College of Social Sciences.-The requirement in Latin is: matriculation Latin, 6 units; either matriculation or college Latin, 6 units. Total, 12 units.

6. College of Commerce.-History, etc., must include: Economic Geography, 3 units; Economic Theory, 6 units; History and Political Science, 15 units. Mathematics must include college courses C, D, 2c, 2D, 10 units. Natural Science must include Physical Geography, college course 1A, 3 units. Of foreign languages there are required for the degree 30 units, of which at least 18 units must be completed before the student enters the Upper Division. A reading knowledge of French or German is required for graduation.

7. Colleges of Engineering and Chemistry. In these colleges six units of the requirement in history, etc., may be deferred until the year following the granting of the Junior Certificate. The requirement in mathematies is as follows: Matriculation subjects 2 and 3, 6 units; matriculation subjects 4 and 12a, 41⁄2 units, or the college courses equivalent thereto; and course 3A-3B, 6 units. Total, at least 16 units. Students in the Colleges of Engineering and Chemistry will in many cases find it advisable to complete also Mathematics 4A-4B, 6 units, before entering the Upper Division. In natural science the requirement is: matriculation Physics, 3 units; college Physics, course 1A-1B, 6 units; matriculation Chemistry, 3 units; college Chemistry, courses 1A-1B, and 3A-3B, 10 units. Total, 22 units. The requirement in drawing is: Matriculation subjects 16 and 17, or their college equivalents. Total, at least 4 units. In the Colleges of Engineering the required work in surveying comprises the college courses 1A-1B and 1c-1D in Civil Engineering, 6 units.

College of Medicine.-For matriculation in the College of Medicinethe four years' course leading to M.D.-the student is required to obtain the Junior Certificate in any of the colleges at Berkeley, or to present evidence of an equivalent preparation. Application for matriculation should be made to the Recorder of the Faculties, at Berkeley. The Medical Faculty recommends that students who anticipate entering the College of Medicine should acquire a reading knowledge of French and German and should include among the studies leading to the Junior Certificate courses of the scope and character of those given in the University during 1911-12, as follows: Physics 1A-1B and 2A-2B; Chemistry 1A-1B, 3A-3B, 8A, 8B, and 110A; Zoology 1 and 106.

Combined Academic and Medical 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 for 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 provisions 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.

The State law governing the practice of medicine in California preseribes that every person before practicing medicine or surgery must produce satisfactory testimonials of good moral character and a diploma issued by some legally chartered medical school, the requirements of which shall have been at the time of granting such diploma in no particular less than those prescribed by the Association of American Medical Colleges for that year. The Association of American Medical Colleges prescribes that every medical student must be registered in a medical college or department for four years and that his preparatory course shall have included two years of Latin, two years of mathematics, two years of English, one year of history, one year of physics, and six years of further credits in languages, literature, history or science.

Students in Architecture must complete all the requirements for the Junior Certificate either in Letters, in Social Sciences, or in Natural Sciences, including either among the prescribed or elective studies: Mathematies, 161⁄2 units; Physics, 9 units; Drawing, 8 units. The work in Mathematics and Physics and four units of the work in Drawing is identical with the work in these subjects in the Colleges of Engineering.

THE UPPER DIVISION.

Students will not be registered in the Upper Division until all matriculation and Lower Division requirements have been completed.

The amount of work to be completed in the Upper Division is normally 60 units in the Colleges of Letters, Social Sciences, Natural Sciences, Agriculture, and Commerce, and 93 to 96 units in the Colleges of Chemistry and Engineering; but extra credits for the Junior Certificate may effect a corresponding reduction in the work of the Upper Division provided the work of the student in the Upper Division be not reduced to less than 12 units in any half-year. The total number of units required for the bachelor's degree is stated on page 87.

Students in the Colleges of Letters, Social Sciences, Natural Sciences, and Agriculture who receive the Junior Certificate with honorable men

tion will be required to complete only fifty-one units in the Upper Division.

The work of the Upper Division must be extended over a period of not less than two years of residence. Two summer sessions are equivalent in point of residence to one half-year. Study-lists limits per half-year in the Upper Division: 12-16 units; summer session: 4-6 units.

The departments in which major courses may at present be taken are as follows:

[blocks in formation]

There are required for the degree, and to be done while the student is in the Upper Division, 36 units of work in major courses, in any department or departments listed above, subject only to the following limitations:

1. Fifteen of the required 36 units of major work must be completed in one department.

2. Students in the Colleges of Letters and Social Sciences, and those students in the College of Natural Sciences who have credit for matriculation Latin, subject 6 (6 units), may select this one department freely from the above list of departments numbered 1-39.

3. Students in the College of Natural Sciences without this credit in Latin must do the required 15 units of major work in one of the departments numbered 18-39.

4. Students in Architecture, Commerce, Agriculture, Mechanics, Mining, Civil Engineering, and Chemistry should select their Upper Division studies according to the directions given in the pages following.

*Not more than twenty-six units of work listed in the professional curriculum in law shall be credited toward a bachelor's degree. The student may enroll for as much more as other regulations permit, but the excess over twenty-six will not be included in his schedule for graduation.
