1995-1996 Academic Catalog

Science and Mathematics 167 Minors The minors in the Department of Science and Math– ematics are designed to provide non-majors with addi– tional background in the biological sciences, mathemat– ics, and the physical sciences. Course requirements for the biology minor involve twenty-five quarter hours including: BI0-114 Introduction to Biology .................................... 5 BI0-115 General Zoology ............................................... 5 BI0-134 General Botany ................................................ 5 Biology electives (200 level or above) ........................... 10 Course requirements for the chemistry minor involve twenty-four quarter hours including: CHEM-151,152,153 General Chemistry I,II,III ............ 12 CHEM-254 Quantitative Analysis ................................. .4 CHEM-357 Organic Chemistry I .................................... 5 Chemistry electives .......................................................... 3 Course requirements for the mathematics minor involve twenty-five quarter hours including: MATH-281,282,283 Analytic Geometry and Calculus I,II,III ........................................................... 15 Mathematics electives (300 or 400 level courses) ......... 10 Course requirements for the physics minor involve twenty-five quarter hours selected from: PHYS-271,272,273 General Physics I,II,III ................. 15 PHYS-376 Electricity and Magnetism ............................ 5 PHYS-378,379 Modern Physics I,II ............................. 10 Medical Technology A medical technology option is available within the biology major. The student must spend one year in a hospital internship program to become a certified medical technologist. Prerequisites to the hospital internship include: 24 hours of biology, 24 hours of chemistry, one mathematics course, and completion of all general education requirements. The student may do the internship during his/her senior year, with 48 hours of transfer credit applied to the biology major upon successful completion of the intern– ship. Many students complete the requirements for a biology major first and then take the internship after graduation from Cedarville College. Botany students have full color plant samples at theirfinger tips through CedarNet and a program developed by John Silvius, pictured here.
