SCIENCE AND MATHEMATICS TODAY'S AGE is rapidly becoming an age of math- ematics ancl science. ln keeping pace with this progress, Phoenix College offers excellent two- year curriculums in these fields. The Biology Department provides a wide range of courses, including botany, zoology, genetics, microbiology, anatomy, and physiology. These courses are designed for the science maior but also fulfill the science requirements for other areas. PC's Engineering program is arranged so that the completion of two additional years at one of the state universities will, in most cases, entitle the student to the degree of Bachelor of Science in areas such as electrical, mechanical, mining, or chemical engineering. A popular curriculum at Phoenix College is the Semiprofessional. Community leaders and rep- resentatives from industrial plants in this area de- velop the programs for Electronics Technicians and Mechanical and Electrical Drafting Technician to give future employees a fundamental knowledge of electronics and electricity. Part of the training provided in the Electronics curriculum is experience in operating PC's own FM radio station, KFCA. Very essential in our world of numbers and statistics is the training offered by the Mathema- tics Department. Whether he is concentrating on the field of math or simply taking a few courses to satisfy requirements in other areas, a student will find courses from basic mathematics to ad- vanced calculus and differential equations. Test tubes, beakers and bunsen burners are pieces of equipment familiar to students in the Chemistry Department. Various courses in intro- ductory, organic and inorganic chemistry are made available. Nineteen courses, ranging from the basic in- troduction to physical sciences to work in astron- omy, microwave theory and digital computers, are offered by the Physics Department.
