1995-1996 Academic Catalog

Science Prepharmacy The prepharmacy curriculum enables a student to obtain the first two years of the five year pharmacy program at Cedarville College. To insure that specific course requirements may be met through Cedarville courses, the student should select the pharmacy college he or she plans to attend as early as possible and obtain a catalog describing the specific course requirements. The following courses should be included in the two years the prepharmacy student attends Cedarville: BI0-115 General Zoology ............................................... 5 BI0-134 General Botany ................................................ 5 BI0-313 Vertebrate Zoology .......................................... 5 CHEM-151,152,153 General Chemistry l,II,111 ............ 12 CHEM-357,358,359 Organic Chemistry l,II,111 ........... 15 COM-110 Fundamentals of Speech ................................ 5 ENG-110 English Composition I .................................... 5 ENG-140 English Composition II ................................... 5 GSS-100 Foundations of Social Science ......................... 5 MATH-281 Analytic Geometry and Calculus I .............. 5 Prephysical Therapy The prephysical therapy program, prepares students for admission to graduate-level schools of physical therapy. The courses in the curriculum generally satisfy the prerequisites prescribed by the A.P.T.A. accredited graduate schools offering masters degrees in physical therapy. Students should contact the specific schools they wish to attend to determine the exact prerequisites for those schools. Physical therapy schools favor students who have gained practical experience in the field. Consequently, prephysical therapy students should obtain a minimum of 100 clock hours experience in assisting a licensed physi– cal therapist prior to the senior year. Competition for admission to physical therapy schools remains fierce. A minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0 is necessary to gain entrance into graduate schools, al– though 3.4 is more realistic. The prephysical therapy curriculum, which satisfies the requirements for a degree in biology, provides students with many health-related, post-graduate study options. These options include medical, dental, osteopathic, optometric, chiropractic, and graduate schools. Course requirements include: BI0-114 Introduction to Biology .................................... 5 BI0-115 General Zoology ............................................... 5 BI0-134 General Botany ................................................ 5 BI0-200 General Ecology ............................................... 5 BI0-218 Pathophysiology ............................................... 5 BI0-238Microbiology .................................................... 5 BI0-306 Genetics ............................................................ 5 BIO 316,317 Human Structure and Function I and II ... 10 BI0-411 Vertebrate Embryology .................................... 5 Prephysical therapy students receive relevant professional and academic advice from professor Evan Hellwig, a licensed physical therapist and certified athletic trainer. **BUS-211,212Statistics ............................................... 6 CHEM-151,152,153 General Chemistry I,II,111 ............ 12 CHEM-356Biochemistry ............................................... 5 CHEM-357 Organic Chemistry I .................................... 5 CIS-100 Introduction to Computers ................................ 2 CIS-220 Computer Information Systems ........................ 3 GSCI-184 College Algebra ............................................. 5 GSCI-185 Precalculus ..................................................... 5 GSCI-440 Seminar ..........................................................
