THE NATURAL SCIENCE GROUP AIMS The courses of the natural science group are especially intended: 1. To give a thorough liberal education with a basis in the objective sciences. 2. To prepare for the pursuit of specialties in zoology, entomology, physiology, botany, or geology, as a scientific career. 3. To lay in biological work and study a liberal foundation for a course in medicine. 4. To prepare for the teaching of the natural or physical sciences in high schools and colleges. Special advantages are offered to graduate students, for whose work the museums, laboratories, and libraries, and the field and experimental equipment of the University and of the associated State Laboratory of Natural History, furnish an extraordinarily full provision. The University Biological Station,at Havana,is regarded as one of the University laboratories, and work done there by students may receive credit like work in any of the other laboratories. CLASSIFICATION OF SUBJECTS PRESCRIBED Art and Design 4; 2 credits. Chemistry 1, 3a, and 3b or 4; 3 credits. German 1, 2, 5, 6; 5 or 6 credits.* Mathematics 1 to 6; 2 credits.
