-
2.00 - 4.00 Credits
A science course designed to teach concepts of chemistry using works of art as the context. The course may include the study of materials used in creation of objects of art, art preservation, art restoration, forgery detection and nondestructive testing. The course will also explore the effect of environmental pollution, primarily air, on the stability and longevity of objects of art. The influence of materials on aesthetics will also be included. Lecture only.
-
2.00 Credits
Required travel portion for CHE 165. As they travel through the country of Italy, students will be able to experience works of art while making important connections to chemistry concepts discussed in lecture. These topics include: glass and tile mosaics; paintings on canvas and wood; frescos; marble and metal sculptures; protection, restoration, and preservation of art; and the chemistry of color and pigments.

3.00 Credits
No course description available.
-
3.00 Credits
A study of the chemical properties and reactions of carbon and its derivatives. Topics include bonding, nomenclature, stereo chemistry, substitution, elimination and free radical reactions, organometallic compounds, infrared and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and the chemistry of alkyl halides, alcohols, epoxides, glycols, alkenes and alkynes.
-
1.00 Credits
Experiments focus on organic techniques used in the purification of liquids and solids and in structural elucidation. Emphasis is on the acquisition of basic organic laboratory skills, including communication of the results of scientific work. Over the course of the academic term, between nine and twelve experiments are conducted and students are required to keep a detailed laboratory notebook and submit discipline-specific formal laboratory reports on selected experiments. To effectively emulate the experience of professional science communication, training in report writing as well as peer review and iterative revision are incorporated in the report assignments.
-
3.00 Credits
A continuation of Organic Chemistry I. Topics include the chemistry of benzene, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids and their derivatives, amines, polycyclic and heterocyclic compounds, condensation reactions and special topics such as carbohydrates, amino acids, proteins or pericyclic reactions.
-
1.00 Credits
Experiments involved organic synthesis and physical methods in organic chemistry including IR and NMR spectroscopy. Emphasis is on the acquisition of organic laboratory skills and communication of the results of scientific work. Over the course of the academic term, between nine and twelve experiments are conducted and students are required to keep a detailed laboratory notebook and submit discipline-specific formal laboratory reports on selected experiments. To effectively emulate the experience of professional science communication, training in report writing as well as peer review and iterative revision are incorporated in the report assignments.
-
1.00 Credits
This course offers an introduction of the chemical and biological properties and reactions of medicinal compounds and their metabolites. Topics include: the chemistry of bonding, nomenclature, stereochemistry, geometry and pharmacology. Students will be given the opportunity to present on disease-related topics and their respective treatments.
-
