GRADUATE COURSES

The equipment of the botanical department is fairly complete, permitting a wide range of studies. It includes the following collections:

(1) A phaenogamic herbarium of 150,000 sheets of mounted specimens and a large quantity of unmounted material which is available for use by responsible investigators. The flora of Western America is here better represented than in any other collection, which permits of satisfactory work in preparing revisions or monographs of these plants. The economic section contains representatives of the more common cultivated plants, particularly of those grown in California.

(2) A cryptogamic herbarium consisting of 25,000 mounted sheets. The representation of the west coast algae is undoubtedly the most complete in existence. These collections, together with the ease with which the marine forms may be collected, render the study of cryptogams, and particularly of algae, very satisfactory.

(3) A botanical museum containing valuable sections of woods, barks, cones, etc., available for class and research work.

(4) A botanical garden where native plants are grown and where cultural experiments may be carried on by qualified students.

Matriculation chemistry, subject 12b, is usually prerequisite to all courses in chemistry, excepting courses 1c, 1D anu lE. To students who have not taken chemistry in the high schools an opportunity of taking an equivalent course is offered during the summer session of the University.

Either matriculation chemistry or course 1c is ordinarily prerequisite to courses 1D and 1E. Credit will not be given for both 1D and 1E, nor will credit be given for 1c, 1D, or 1E to a student who at any time receives credit for 1A-1B.

Course 1A-1B is prerequisite to all further courses in chemistry. Either course 5 or 6A is prerequisite to all upper division courses in chemistry. A thorough training in mathematics and physics should not be neglected. Students who desire to become familiar with the fundamentals of chemistry should take courses 8A-8B, 9 and 111A.

All undergraduate students from other institutions, who desire to take courses in chemistry more advanced than course 1A-1B, must present themselves to Professor Blasdale on or before the date of their registration for an informal examination or test of their fitness to undertake such work. In cases of doubt, such students will be required to enter a probation course of not more than two weeks duration.

Candidates for the teacher's recommendation with chemistry as a major must take the following courses: 1A-1B, 6A-6B or 5, 8A-8B, 9, 161,

2 In residence second half-year only, 1916-17.

and either 111A or five further units of major work, including course 120, or 121, or 110, and must pass with credit a final examination covering the general field of chemistry.

Candidates for the master's degree in chemistry must devote their time for one full graduate year to chemistry and allied subjects. Only those candidates whose work is completely satisfactory in the elected courses and in research leading to the prescribed thesis will be recommended for the master's degree.

All students, whether in the College of Chemistry or in the College of Letters and Science, who propose to enter any branch of pure or applied chemistry as a profession are recommended to submit their proposed schedules to Professor O'Neill, 221 Chemistry Building. Whether the student intends to prepare himself for research in governmental, industrial, or educational institutions, for teaching, for analytical chemistry, manufacturing chemistry, the chemistry of petroleum or any of the other branches of chemical engineering, it is desirable that a complete schedule of courses, chosen with a definite purpose and free from conflicts, be arranged at the earliest possible date. A general schedule for students in chemical engineering will be found in the announcement of the College of Chemistry in the Circular of Information.

A fee of $5 will be charged for each unit of laboratory work in undergraduate courses; for example, $10 for 1A-1B, 5, 6A-6B, and section II of 9 and $15 for section I of 9. The fee for course 180 is an exception to this rule and is $10 irrespective of the number of hours taken, In addition to the fee, a deposit of $5 must be made for each undergraduate course and this deposit, less the cost of apparatus destroyed, will be returned at the end of the half-year.

The chemical laboratory is well equipped for research work, and is open to properly qualified graduate students, not only throughout the college year, but also during the summer vacation.
