Electives. — Chemistry 33 (Elementary Organic Chemistry) is strongly recommended. T h e electives would be increased or decreased according to the student's high school credits in mathematics and foreign languages. Eight hours or more of the electives of the fourth year should be devoted to geography (physiography and meteorology) if the candidate expects to teach general science in addition to biology. If the candidate wishes to combine the teaching of physical education and biology, it is recommended that he complete the following courses: Physiology 3a-3b (10 h o u r s ) , Botany l a - l b (5 h o u r s ) , and Zoology I (5 h o u r s ) . Fifth Year For the Degree of Master of Science in the Teaching of the Biological Sciences and General Science Eight units of work as listed below are required.
