-
4.00 Credits
Fundamental principles of chemistry that include nomenclature, stoichiometry, atomic structure, periodic relationships, chemical bonding, geometry of molecules, properties of gases, solutions, and an introduction to organic chemistry. Laboratory includes both descriptive and quantitative work. Prerequisites: High school chemistry or PS 101 and MA 140 or MA 111 or MA 120 or their equivalents.
-
4.00 Credits
Chemical principles that include thermodynamics, acids and bases, rates of reaction, electrochemistry, organic chemistry, synthetic materials. Prerequisite: PS 105.
-
3.00 Credits
An introductory science course in general biology. Emphasis is placed on human anatomy, and on the chemical and biological foundations of human physiology. Provides background material that supports life science applications courses. Required for the minor in Aerospace Life Sciences.
-
1.00 Credits
Students will perform fundamental experiments to supplement discussions of selected topics in PS107 (Elements of Biological Science). Experiments will include use of the compound microscope to examine living and non-living cells and tissues, studies of DNA and chromosomes during mitosis and meiosis, and other types of biologically important compounds, and cell structure and transformation. Students will also measure their own pulse rate, blood pressure, and respiratory capacity. Corequisite: PS107.
-
3.00 Credits
Elementary chemical theory. The origins and development of chemistry with an overview of the present applications of chemistry and its future potential in human affairs. Applications to scientific decisionmaking in the business and industrial environment. One one-hour laboratory session per week. Students who take PS 108 may not also take PS 101.
-
4.00 Credits
This course will study the principles and processes associated with the biology of plants, including a survey of fungi, green protista, and plants. Major emphasis on vascular plants, evolutionary origins, and ecological adaptations. One three-hour laboratory session per week.
-
4.00 Credits
This course will study the principles and processes found in the animal kingdom, including a survey of the major animal groups. Major emphasis is on structure, diversity, phylogeny, and ecological adaptations. One three-hour laboratory session per week.
-
4.00 Credits
Chemical stoichiometry, states of matter, solutions, thermodynamics, rate of reaction, equilibrium, oxidation- reduction, corrosion, organic compounds, and polymers. Prerequisite: High school chemistry or PS 101. Corequisite: PS 141.
-
1.00 Credits
One three-hour laboratory session per week, with experiments paralleling the material of PS 140. Corequisite: PS 140.
-
3.00 Credits
An introductory course that stresses the interrelations of all aspects of the living and the nonliving world. Introduces the student to key concepts and principles that govern how nature works and the application of these concepts and principles to possible solutions to environmental and resource problems.
