IRVINE B.S., Penn State University Biology Importance of Science vanced chemistry, and three courses in physics. Since these sciences are directly related to life in the modern world, it is necessary that every student, not only the prospective scientist, has a general knowledge of some of these courses. This program, which begins at the Junior High School level, instills in the student the ability to seek solutions. To memorize in itself is insignificant, for without reasoning there is no knowledge.
