The Ogden College of Science and Technology contains the Departments of Agriculture, Biology, Chemistry, Geography and Geology, Mathematics and Physics. Situated on the campus of the Ogden College, an educational institution established in 1877, this college has embedded in it a tradition of high scholarship. On June 1, 1960, the Ogden Board of Regents signed a ninety-nine year lease granting to the University the right to use the existing buildings and to construct new buildings on the Ogden campus. Construction was begun in the spring on a 2M million dollar science complex. It will house the various departments composing the college. Also included in the complex is the Hardin Thompson Planetarium which will be extensively used in astronomy and space science work on the college level. Many curriculum advancements have taken place in recent years. Besides offering majors and minors in the departments of the college, related majors and minors may be obtained in seven additional areas including medical technology and pre-Optometry. An aerial view of the Western Experimental Farm which provides practical experience for the agriculture majors. Mr. Joseph Stokes, Assistant Professor of Mathematics, explains a calculus problem to one of the advanced mathematics classes.
