COURSE OF STUDY 149 ADVANCED STANDING Students who have received the degree of bachelor of arts or bachelor of science, and those who have conv pleted a "medical preparatory course," equivalent to that given by the University of Illinois, and graduates of reputable schools of pharmacy, veterinary science, or dental surgery, may enter the sophomore class and complete their studies upon three years of attendance, provided they fulfill all other requirements for admission and graduation. Students thus advanced may not complain of any conflict of hours, nor absent themselves from any part of the lower conflicting course; but they may make up deficiencies in the work of the winter session during the spring course in such branches as are represented in that course. COURSE OF STUDY The curriculum required of all students for graduation extends over four years. During the first two years the work is confined to the sciences fundamental to practical medicine. During the freshman year this consists of work in histology, biology, embryology, chemistry, human anatomy, physiology, and materia medica. During the sopho^ more year the study of physiology, chemistry, and human anatomy is continued, and in addition the student takes up pathology, bacteriology, and therapeutics. With the junior year the study of the practical branches of medicine is begun. The entire subjects of practice of medicine, surgery, and obstetrics are covered in recitation courses. The student also begins clinical and bedside work and receives instruction in medical and surgical specialties. More advanced work along the same lines is continued in the senior year. Practice of medicine, surgery, and obstetrics are gone over again, this time in lecture courses and with greater minuteness of detail and profuseness of illustration. The various special departments of medicine and surgery are presented with like thoroughness and a large part of the student's time is given to the study of individual sick and injured people.
