 The Department of Entomology and Nematology offers
 the Master of Agriculture, Master of Science, and Doctor of
 Philosophy degrees in entomology and nematology. Mem-
 bers of the graduate faculty include the department resident
 faculty, faculty located on University of Florida campuses
 away from Gainesville, scientists of the U.S. Department of
 Agriculture, and scientists with other State of Florida agen-
 cies such as the Division of Plant Industry and Florida State
 Department of Agriculture and Consumer Service. The
 graduatefaculty is qualified todirectgraduate students in all
 specialities of entomology, nematology, and acarology.
 New graduate students should have background in biol-
 ogy, chemistry, physics, and mathematics and knowledge
 of basic entomology or nematology. Minor deficiencies
 may be made up after entering graduate school.
 General requirements for graduate degrees are estab-
 lished by the Graduate School and listed elsewhere in this
 Catalog. A specific program of study is prepared by the
 appointed supervisory committee for each student. Ph.D.
 qualifying examinations are administered on campus by
 the student's supervisory committee plus two other faculty
 members appointed by the chairman of the department.
