dent activities available on campus, studentscan soon choose to fill their time to whatever

extent they wish.

those who wish to gain certification for secondaryschool teaching. From its founding, the

Cctlese and, the biology department have pre-pared men and women to enter medical schooland graduate programs in the life sciences.Through an added system of advising, intern.ships, and suggested ancillary courses ina Pre-Professional Curnculum for the Health

Sciences, the biology department assists thosewho wish to enter professional schools Onmedicine, dentistry, veterinary science, optom-etry,nul'iing,etc). Additionally,thedepart_

based systems in envtrcmental studies

Physics deals with the most basic aspects of the

natural world, and is characterized by its empha-

sis upon the analysis and solution of rhose prob-

lems that the study of nature presents

The Physics major is designed to provide stu-

denlS with knowledge of and experience in the

basic concepts and methods used in physics

This background is appropriate for further

study in a variety of areas, induding law, rnedi-

cine, teaching, the social sclences.xngtnecring,mathematics, computer science, and the natural

sciences (astronomy, biology, chemistry, geol

ogy, meteorology, oceanography as well as

physics Itself). By a judicious chcice of clcc-

uves, the student with an undergraduate major

in physics can prepare forenrry into graduate

and professional study in any of these fields
