This room is also used as a clinic room for practical demonstrations of the treatment of pathological conditions of the teeth and mouth; light therapy, local anaesthesia, the use of compressed air and all other features of the course in Dental Pathology and Therapeutics are demonstrated clinically in conjunction with the didactic course. In connection with the infirmary, there has been established an X-ray laboratory, which offers an exceptional opportunity for the student to learn the value of the X-ray in dental diagnosis. The clinic provides many surgical, orthodontia and operative cases. Each student is provided with a locker for general use and is required to provide himself with new white coats to be worn during the time spent in the infirmary. ADMISSION Requirements for Admission Students will be matriculated in the College of Dentistry on any acceptable four-year high school course-that is, 45 units of preparatory work selected freely by the applicant from the general list of preparatory subjects of the University of California. Credit for these 45 units must be obtained either by examination or by diplomas and recommendations from accredited high schools in accordance with general University regulations governing examinations and recommendations. Any applicant who is qualified for admission to the academic colleges of the University as regular student or student at large is qualified for admission to the College of Dentistry. The degree D.D.S. is conferred only upon persons who are twenty-one years of age. Applications for admission should be made at the office of the Recorder of the Faculties, California Hall, Berkeley, California. Applications may be sent by mail. Information concerning the list of preparatory subjects, matriculation examinations, recommendations, dates for application and other matters is contained in the Circular of the Academic Colleges, to be obtained, on request, from the Recorder. Physics or Chemistry Required, August, 1913, and Thereafter Beginning August, 1913, the applicant's matriculation record must include credit for physics, subject 11, or chemistry, subject 12b, or an equivalent. GENERAL LIST OF PREPARATORY SUBJECTS. Units of Credit.-The amount of work represented both by preparatory or high school subjects and by the University courses is specified quanti tatively. 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. Laboratory hours not requiring preparation are estimated at a lower rate than recitations and lectures. Subject A will hereafter not be required for matriculation, but will be required for Junior standing in all the colleges at Berkeley. An examination in this subject will be given shortly before the close of each half-year. Every intrant admitted to regular first-year or second year standing is required to take an examination in Subject A before the close of his first half-year's work; failure to take the examination in Subject A at the time required, or failure to pass, has the same effect upon the student's standing as a failure to pass in an ordinary course. Special students, as heretofore, will be required to pass a test in oral and written expression before entering the University. This test will be conducted for each appli cant by his advisor. A student who passes this test is still required to pass Subject A if he desires promotion to Junior standing. The dagger indicates subjects for which equivalent courses are offered in the University. For further description of these courses reference should be made to the annual Announcement of Courses. For the conditions governing credit in subjects 18-21, the applicant should refer to the Circular of the Academic Colleges. In certain of these subjects no credit is given unless accompanied by credit for other subjects. In some no examinations are given. Credit in 20c, 20d, and 21 is given only upon examination. Subjects 6ab1, 15a1, 15b1, and 15e1 represent the minimum credit in Latin, French, German, and Spanish, respectively-one year of high school work. Such credit is ordinarily given only upon recommendation, not upon examination. MATRICULATION GROUP I For matriculation in the Colleges of Letters, Social Sciences, Natural Sciences, Commerce and Agriculture and in the five-year courses in the Colleges of Mechanics, Mining, Civil Engineering and Chemistry: English, subject 1, 6 units; Foreign Language or Languages, Ancient or Modern, selected from subjects 6, 7, 8, 9, 15, 12 units; United States History and Government, subject 5, 3 units; Mathematics, subjects 2 and 3, 6 units; Natural Science, subject 11, 12b, 12c, 12d or 12f, 3 units; elective, 15 units. Total, 45 units. Applicants may include among their electives not more than 9 units from subjects 18, 19, 20, 21. The candidate for admission must have chosen his preparatory subjects in such a way as to have a total of 12 units of subjects designated as "advanced," including United States History and Government, and including one of the following sciences, if taken with laboratory work, in classes made up of third-year or fourth-year pupils in the high school: Physics, Chemistry, Botany, Zoology, Physiology. Subjects which may be offered as advanced subjects are as follows: 4a, 4b, 5, 7, 9, 11, 12 (excluding sciences given in the first and second years of the high school), 13b, 14, 15a3, 15a*, 15b3, 15b*. Applicants entering the Colleges of Engineering, or the College of Chemistry, or expecting to take up other courses of study (for example, certain of the courses in Agriculture) 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. Admission with Deficiencies-The question of admitting an applicant to the University with matriculation deficiencies is decided in each case by the Academic Senate or its committees upon the merits of the case. In general, applicants with less than forty-five units of matriculation credit are not admitted. Caution-The work for matriculation is so closely related to the work of the Freshman and Sophomore years in the University that the matriculation electives cannot be intelligently chosen without reference to the requirements for the Junior Certificate. These requirements are stated in detail in the circular of information for the Academic Departments, for which apply to the Recorder of the Faculties, University of California, Berkeley. ADMISSION FROM CALIFORNIA STATE NORMAL SCHOOLS By a provision of the Academic Senate, the State normal schools of California may recommend their graduates for admission without examination; but students who come from the normal schools without credit for the required matriculation work in foreign languages will be conditioned in this requirement. Any courses (e.g., French or German) taken in the University for the purpose of satisfying requirements for matriculation are credited only for matriculation, and not as a part of the 124 or more units required for the degree. Graduates of the California State normal schools who are also graduates of accredited high schools may, under certain conditions, receive advanced credit in the University amounting to forty-eight units of the sixty-four units required for the Junior Certificate. The credit so granted may, at the discretion of any University department concerned, be accepted as satisfying prerequisites for advanced or major work. A form of recommendation for admission to the University from the State normal schools will be furnished by the Recorder of the Faculties upon application. ADMISSION FROM SCHOOLS OUTSIDE OF CALIFORNIA Students desiring to matriculate from states other than California will be accepted upon presenting an admission certificate from any of the dental schools holding membership in the Dental Faculties Association of American Universities. The schools holding membership in this Association are: Harvard University Dental School, University of Pennsylvania School of Dentistry, University of Michigan School of Dentistry, University of Iowa School of Dentistry, University of Minnesota School of Dentistry, University of California School of Dentistry. SUMMER SESSION COURSES At present there is opportunity during the Summer Session for students to do systematic work in preparation for matriculation in the following courses: German 1, the equivalent of matriculation subject 15b1. French 1, the equivalent of matriculation subject 15a'. Mathematics 1, the equivalent of matriculation subject 12a2. (Trigonometry.) |
