The instruction in this department is offered at present in 19 courses.
Courses 1 and 2 form a one year's course and are designed to lay the
foundation for the advanced courses, as well as to present to the stu
dent a general outline of the principles of botanical science. Course
3 is designed especially for the needs of the students in civil engineer
ing, where a knowledge of timber structure, strength of material as
related to different kinds of timber tissue, and the diseases of timber,
is important.
The advanced courses in comparative morphology, and embryology,
comparative histology and mycology, are intended to lay the founda
tion for independent investigations in these subjects as well as to pre
sent in a logical way the fundamental principles of development,
relationship, and phylogeny, as applied in these topics. Aside from
the elementary courses these subjects are recommended especially to
students who are fitting themselves for teachers, since a of grasp the
principles underlying them is needed for the proper and thorough
presentation of the elementary principles of botany. In the work of
