4.00 Credits
Prerequisites: CHEM 3521 and CHEM 3310K This is a course designed for chemistry majors that covers the use of instrumentation for chemical analysis. Topics will include optical spectroscopy, laser spectroscopy, NMR, mass spectrometry, and selected topics in polarimetry, voltammetry, and chromatography. In this class, we will discuss the theory behind the analysis (with a strong emphasis on quantum mechanics and spectroscopy), instrumental operation (that covers the electronics and optical components of instruments), and data analysis and interpretation (which includes signal processing, Fourier transformation, and statistical analysis). There is a three hour laboratory component to the course. Laboratory exercises will familiarize students with electronics, applications of spectroscopy, chemical instrumentation, and data analysis.

3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: CHEM 3521 This course introduces elementary concepts of modern surface chemistry. Considerations of thermodynamics, kinetics, surface structure, electronic structure, and catalysis, and reactivity will be explored using examples from the current literature. Surface Chemistry draws upon all areas of chemistry; therefore, a solid background in calculus, physics, and chemistry is assumed.
-
1.00 Credits
Prerequisite: CHEM 3521 This laboratory course is designed to familiarize students with modern techniques of surface science. The techniques include scanning tunneling microscopy, atomic force microscopy, low energy electron diffraction, auger electron spectroscopy, thermal desorption spectroscopy, and ion sputtering. Design considerations of vacuum systems will be explored. Since all techniques are on-site, this will be an interactive hands-on experience.
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Consent of department Advanced Topics in Analytical Chemistry provides the student exposure to current topics and problems unique to the fi eld of analytical chemistry. This course will be offered periodically with the topics announced by the faculty involved.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: CHEM 2422 Organic Medical Chemistry is a course covering a wide variety of medicinal drugs, their actions in the body, and, ultimately, their metabolism and excretion.
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisite: CHEM 2422 Building upon the students' backgrounds in organic chemistry, these courses will explore in greater depth selected advanced topics in organic chemistry. Selected topics such as advanced synthesis, reaction mechanism, molecular orbital theory, spectroscopy, stereochemistry, and physical organic chemistry will be offered.
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisite: CHEM 3521 and CHEM 3522 Building upon the students' backgrounds in required courses in physical chemistry, this course will explore in greater depth selected topics in physical chemistry. These will be chosen from atomic and molecular structure, spectroscopy, statistical mechanics, and dynamics of chemical reactions.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: CHEM 2422 and PHYS 1112 or 2212 The wave nature of electrons is applied to atomic structure and periodic trends. Inter and intramolecular bonding models are used to interpret the chemical and physical properties of various materials, from simplistic diatomic molecules to structurally complex molecular and ionic systems. Thermodynamic principles are used to determine the relative stability of inorganic compounds.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: PHYS 2212, CHEM 3521 and CHEM 3522 Fundamental quantum mechanical principles are applied to atomic structure and the periodic properties of the elements. The structure and reactivity of ionic and molecular systems are qualitatively analyzed by using bonding models such as valence bond theory, group symmetry, and molecular orbital theory. The Band Theory is used to investigate the insulating/conducting properties of solids.
