4.00 Credits
Supervised work experience in church or volunteer organization, social service agency, business or government offi ce. Tailored to fi t student's major or interests. Students work 10-12 hours onsite and attend weekly seminar that assists students in employment preparation, resume writing, interview skills and portfolio development, and integrates classroom and work experience. Seminar engages students in thoughtful study of issues related to working in international, multicultural city. (Optional urban practica, which can be taken in place of BUS425 with approval of student's department, include EDU425 Student Teaching, SWK425 Social Work, YMN425 Youth Ministry.)
-
3.00 Credits
Focus on fi eld techniques, including use of GPS, and on data analysis of community and population ecology data. Connections with local groups will lead to fi eld project. Individual research. Prerequisites: BIO150, 151, 250. (Alternate years. Offered 2008-09.)
-
4.00 Credits
Presents fundamental principles and concepts of chemistry: stoichiometry; atomic structure; thermochemistry; elementary quantum theory; chemical periodicity; chemical bonding; molecular structure and geometry; properties of gases, liquids, solids and solutions; kinetic theory; and phase equilibria. Laboratory emphasizes quantitative measurement and develops investigative techniques and ability to interpret results. Previous high school or introductory college chemistry course strongly recommended. Core physical science lab option. Lab fee.
-
4.00 Credits
Continues presentation of fundamental principles and concepts of chemistry: chemical kinetics, chemical equilibria, elementary thermodynamics and electrochemistry. Laboratory emphasizes quantitative measurement and develops investigative techniques and ability to interpret results. Prerequisite: CHE111 or equivalent. Lab fee.
-
4.00 Credits
Considers importance of carbon chemistry in our lives and world, and emphasizes the application of principles of green chemistry in this fi eld. Surveys representative organic compounds; discusses alkanes, alkenes and alkynes, and structure, properties, synthesis and reactions of these molecules. Laboratory focuses on development of basic macro and micro techniques common to organic chemistry. Prerequisite: CHE112. Lab fee.
-
4.00 Credits
Continues discussion of classes of organic molecules including aromatic and organometallic compounds, alcohols, ethers, amines and carbonyl compounds, with continued emphasis on applying principles of green chemistry in organic chemistry. Emphasizes elucidation of molecular structure via instrumental techniques such as IR and NMR. Laboratory builds upon techniques with additional preparative chemistry and with classifi cation and identifi cation of unknown compounds. Prerequisite: CHE211. Lab fee.
-
4.00 Credits
Surveys classical analytical applications of statistics, chemical equilibria and electrochemistry. Laboratory includes acidbase, precipitation, redox, potentiometry and complexation methods along with use of computer software to collect and analyze data. Prerequisite: CHE112. Lab fee.
-
4.00 Credits
Introduces instrumental methods of quantitative and qualitative analysis, including chromatography (gas and liquid), spectroscopy (UV-Vis, fl uorescence, FTIR, AA, mass) and associated hyphenated techniques (gas chromatography mass spectrometry). Laboratory emphasizes environmental and bioanalytical applications. Prerequisite: CHE311, or CHE112 and permission of instructor. Lab fee.
-
4.00 Credits
Examines thermodynamics and kinetics. Thermodynamics topics: gas equations of state and kinetic theory of gases; laws of thermodynamics; entropy; free energy; chemical equilibrium; and phase equilibrium of one- and two-component systems. Kinetics topics: empirical chemical kinetics and reaction rate theory. Laboratory involves experiments in calorimetry and empirical kinetics. Prerequisites: CHE112 and PHY122. Lab fee. (Alternate years. Offered 2008-09.)
