Biological Sciences/57
6. Additional required courses: Chemistry
141,142,143,144,237,238,321,322;
Physics 141, 142,143,144; six hours in math-
ematics selected from: Math. 110, 120,
161, 171, 178 (students who are placed in
Math. 171 or higher and earn credit
may elect to take only three hours of
mathematics.)
7. Other degree requirements are the
same as for the Bachelor of Science degree.
Bachelor of Science
in Medical Technology
In cooperation with medical technol-
ogy schools approved by the American Soci-
ety of Clinical Pathologists, the Depart-
ment offers this program for laboratory tech-
nicians. Required procedures:
1. Completion, with a minimum grade-point
average of 2.5 for upper division
courses in the sciences, of the following pre-
professional requirements: Biology 132,
238, 300, 380-381, 420, plus three courses
to be selected from: Biology 360 or
430, 337 or 338, 351, 409, and 439.
Note: Those students who have taken
organic chemistry (Chemistry 360) before
enrolling in Biology 238 are encouraged
to take Biology 337 in its place. Such students
still would be able to count Biology
338 among their three electives.
Chemistry 141-142, 360, 361-362
Mathematics 110, and Computer Science 101
or Mathematics 120
Physics 141-142, 143, 144
English 131-132 and 221-222 or 231-232
or 235-236 (270 may be substituted
for 232 or 236)
Political Science 204-205
American History, 6 semester hours
Physical Education, 4 semester hours
Total 93-94 semester hours (pre-professional)
2. Submission to the program super-
visor of a "transcript evaluation" request,
including the name(s) of medical tech-
nology school(s) where the student is applying.
3. Filing the name of an accredited
medical technology school to be attended
in the program supervisor's office
before leaving campus.
4. Satisfactory completion of twelve
months of professional training, as verified
by a transcript sent to the program
supervisor from the MT school attended.
5. Evaluation of the professional aca-
demic record by the program supervisor who
will forward certification to the Regis-
trar via the Dean of the College of Arts and
Sciences so that a minimum of 39
semester hours of credit can be entered on
the student's record.Graduate Degrees
The Department offers degree pro-
grams leading to the Master of Arts, Master
of Science, and Doctor of Philosophy.
In cooperation with the Department of Geog-
raphy and the Institute of Applied Sci-
ences, the Department offers a concentration
in land and water resources assess-
ment and management leading to the Mas-
ter of Science degree with a major in
Interdisciplinary Studies. The Department offers
a special curriculum designed to ena-
ble teachers to complete requirements for
a Master of Arts or a Master of Science
degree within three consecutive summers.
Biology majors planning graduate study
should take the Graduate Record Examina-
tion their senior year. For information
on degree programs, consult the Graduate
Catalog.
Genetics Center
David Busbee, Director
The Genetics Center coordinates an interdis-
ciplinary graduate-level program of
research and education in genetics. Programs
leading to clinically oriented M.S. or
research-oriented M.S. or Ph.D. degrees in
biological sciences with concentration
in genetics are available within the
Department of Biological Sciences in
cytogenetics, population genetics, and
biochemical genetics. Continuing edu-
cation programs for physicians and allied
health professions are offered in coop-
eration with the Texas State Health Department
and the Texas Department of Mental
Health and Mental Retardation. See the Grad-
uate Catalog, and for additional infor-
mation contact the Director.
