COLLEGE OF CHEMISTRY Preparation. Students who propose to enter the College of Chemistry should include in their high school programmes physics (one year), chemistry (one year), mathematics, including trigonometry (three years), German or French (two years), and geometrical drawing (one year). Without this preparation it will be difficult or impossible to complete the required curriculum within four years. It should be noted that the equivalents of high school physics and chemistry are given in the University during the summer sessions only, not during the fall or spring sessions. Electives. The total number of units required for graduation is 136 (with 136 grade points). Of the elective units, 35 must be approved electives in chemistry or allied subjects; the remainder are free electives, but may not include the preparatory subjects listed above. Study lists must be submitted for approval to Professor O'Neill. Foreign Language Requirement.-A satisfactory reading knowledge of scientific German before the junior year is essential. The student is urged also to acquire a reading knowledge of French. Honors Students.-Students who in the first two years of their college work have received the grade of A or B in 48 units of accepted courses will receive honorable mention with junior standing. These students are entitled and urged to enter as candidates for honors. The Committee on Candidates for Honors of the College of Chemistry will determine what students shall remain in the honors group and what students shall be promoted thereto. Candidates who, in the judgment of the faculty, display marked superiority in scholarship receive the special distinction of highest honors. The list of students upon whom honors and highest honors are conferred, with mention of their major department, appears in the annual commencement programme. Further information for honors students will be found in the Announcement of Courses. Choice of Electives.—All students are expected to choose their electives in accordance with some comprehensive plan. They may specialize in pure chemistry, or divide their work between chemistry and any related field, such as physics, biochemistry, mineralogy and geology, metallurgy, agricultural chemistry, etc., and will be advised by the Study Lists Committee. All students, at the beginning of the junior year, are required to submit a complete plan of their proposed work in the junior and senior years. This plan may later be departed from with the consent of the Study Lists Committee. Students who expect to specialize in chemical technology are strongly recommended to choose their electives in substantial accordance with the following schedule: * An examination in Subject A: English Composition is required of all undergraduate intrants at the time of their first registration in the University. Date of next examination, Saturday, August 13, 1921, 2 p.m. For further regulations concerning Subject A see General Regulations of the Faculties. CURRICULUM FOR NURSES In November, 1917, the Academic Senate established a curriculum for the training of nurses and appointed a committee to administer the curriculum. The curriculum is designed to meet the need for scientifically trained women to fill administrative and teaching positions in schools of nursing and to go into the many branches of public health work. The curriculum is one of five years. It leads to the B.S. degree and a certificate in nursing. The first two and a half years* are spent in the departments at Berkeley, then two years at the University Hospital School of Nursing in San Francisco, and the final half-year again in the departments at Berkeley. The course as prescribed by the University of California follows: COURSE FOR THE FIRST TWO AND ONE-HALF Years at the UNIVERSITY Required: matriculation in the College of Letters and Science, including high school chemistry and either trigonometry or physics. A minimum programme of 80 units must be completed in the first two and a half years. The Junior Certificate requirement in the College of Letters and Science must be met at the end of two years, during which period the student's study card is subject to the approval of that college. The following special subjects must be included in the work of the first two and a half years: Chemistry 1A-1B Anatomy 102 (General Human Anatomy) 10 3 Bacteriology 1 (General Bacteriology and Microbiology) 4 4 Hygiene 2 (Essentials of Personal and Public Hygiene) 2 3 * Students entering this curriculum may find it necessary to remain for three years in the departments at Berkeley in order to complete the special requirements as well as the requirements for the Junior Certificate. Such students will complete a minimum programme of 90 units (including 18 upper division units) in the departments at Berkeley and will receive the bachelor's degree after completing the additional years at the School of Nursing. The following schedule indicates sequence and arrangement of courses during the first two and a half years. It presupposes that the student who enters will have met all or almost all of the language requirements (b) for the Junior Certificate (see p. 30). Otherwise there will be difficulty in meeting the Junior Certificate requirements along with those of the Nursing School. The student in this curriculum should plan to spend ten weeks of her preparatory period at the University Hospital during the summer vacation following her first year at the University. This will not only afford the student an opportunity to learn whether she cares to continue the study of nursing and for what particular branch of nursing she wishes to prepare but it will enable the faculty to judge of her qualifications for the profession of nursing. COURSE AT THE SCHOOL OF NURSING The two years at the School of Nursing, involving fifty weeks each year, are spent in practice nursing and in lectures and laboratory work in special medical and nursing subjects. See the Announcement of the School of Nursing for particulars. COURSE FOR THE FINAL HALF-YEAR AT THE UNIVERSITY A programme of 16 units, including 9 units of upper division work, will be arranged with reference to the branch of nursing which the student expects to enter. Those students who wish to undertake Public Health Nursing will be under the supervision of the Department of Hygiene. *Required for admission to School of Nursing. Economics 1A-1B will count both as a required course for School of Nursing and as a year course for the Junior Certificate. Probable subjects for the Junior Certificate requirements in Letters and Science. Instead of English 1A-1B in the third and fourth semesters, the student may elect any other year course in groups 1, 3, or 5, as on pages 32 and 33 herein. SCHOOL OF ARCHITECTURE The requirements for admission to the technical course in architecture are junior standing (64 units) in the College of Letters and Science and the following specific courses at the University. The matriculation requirements are set forth in earlier pages of this circular. If the course is to be completed in six years, these courses must be completed in the lower division: Mathematics 3A-3B, 4A-4B; Graphic Art 14 (two semesters), 127; Drawing 3A, 3B, 3c; Physics 1A-1B; Civil Engineering 8; Architecture 5A-5B, 11, 12A-12B, 13A-13в. NOTE. Students who do not wish to follow the technical curriculum in architecture may choose architecture as a major subject in the College of Letters and Science. The requirement for entrance to the School of Architecture (as distinguished from the Department of Architecture) is the A.B. degree with a major in architecture or the equivalent of this. The degree of Graduate in Architecture is conferred upon students in the School of Architecture who shall have remained in residence at least one year after obtaining the A.B. degree and who shall have satisfactorily completed the following courses of study: |
