For the study <strong>of</strong> biology, the <strong>Institute</strong> provides the following<br />
opportunities:<br />
A new option in biology has been introduced into the four-yel;lr<br />
undergraduate Course in Science. This option will include those<br />
fundamental biological subjects that are an essential preparation<br />
for work in any special field <strong>of</strong> pure or applied biology. This<br />
three-year course will afford a far more thorough training in the<br />
basic sciences <strong>of</strong> physics, chemistry, and mathematics than students<br />
<strong>of</strong> biology, medicine, or agriculture commonly receive.<br />
Special opportunities will also be <strong>of</strong>fered for the pursuit <strong>of</strong> more<br />
advanced courses and extended researches leading to the degree<br />
<strong>of</strong> Doctor <strong>of</strong> Philosophy.<br />
