-
4.00 Credits
This course examines the institution of the for-profit business corporation in its economic, legal, political, and social contexts. The course will develop critical perspectives on the corporation and use case studies to illustrate key issues such as competition, cooperation, corporate culture, shareholder value, employee motivation, community relations, public relations, labor relations, lobbying and political influence, and corporate governance, leadership, information management, finance, retail and manufacturing operations, environmental impact, globalization, corporate philanthropy, and business ethics. Offered annually.
-
4.00 Credits
An examination of business enterprise utilizing the different intellectual frameworks provided by the social sciences, humanities and natural sciences, and the mixed and complementary pedagogies of class lectures, off-campus field trips, and guest-speaker colloquia. Students will investigate the relationships between the competitive strategies of business firms, their organizational and technical capabilities, and the historical, social, ethical, cultural, ideological, scientific, ecological, and legal and political traditions, contexts and norms within which they operate. In examinations of firms---large and small, corporate and entrepreneurial, for profit and not-for profit, producers of cultural services and of material goods, and private, state regulated and publicly owned---students will explore the roles of, and interactions between employers, employees, customers, investors, patrons, clients and other stakeholders (including citizen's groups, civic and religious organizations Open to seniors and juniors who have completed the Core requirements for the BSC minor. Signature of BSC Director required. Prerequisite: Four of the following five courses: BSC 10/ Corporations in Context, SOC 117/Sociology of Management, REL 127/Business Ethics, CSCI 2/Impact of computing technology, HIST 124/Business History or HIST 108/The History of Work. Offered every semester.

4.00 Credits
Description developed and proposed by course instructor and approved by the BSC Director and BSC Committee. Course may be repeated. Student may only take one BSC special/selected topics course for credit. Open to BSC minors only. Signature of BSC Director required. Offering to be determined.
-
4.00 Credits
A study of the basic principles of quantum mechanics, atomic spectroscopy, molecular spectroscopy, and structure. Topics include quantum mechanics of translation, vibration, and rotation, application of quantum mechanics to atomic spectra and atomic structure, molecular orbital theory of diatomics and conjugated polyatomics, electronic spectroscopy of diatomics and conjugate systems, vibrational spectroscopy, mass spectroscopy, and elementary nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Laboratory experiments emphasize the use of the above mentioned spectroscopies in the determination of molecular structure. Meets: Three hours class, three hours laboratory. Prerequisite: CHEM 26 and MATH 8 and PHYS 12. Offered fall semester.
-
4.00 Credits
A study of the principles of chemical thermodynamics and kinetics. Topics include the first and second laws of thermodynamics describing the state functions-internal energy, enthalpy, entropy, Gibbs free energy, physical and chemical equilibria, statistical thermodynamics, rate laws and their determination, theories of reaction rates, reaction mechanism and catalysis. Laboratory experiments seek to determine the thermodynamic and kinetic behavior of systems using spectroscopic techniques as far as possible. Meets: Three hours class, three hours laboratory. Prerequisite: CHEM 103. Corequisite or Prerequisite: CHEM 26, MATH 8, and PHYS 12. Offered spring semester.
-
4.00 Credits
A study of the principles of quantitative analytical chemistry, including error analysis and statistics, multiple equilibrium, electrochemistry, and introduction to spectroscopic methods, and an advanced study of acids and bases in aqueous solutions. Laboratory includes titrimetry, spectrophotometry, and electroanalytical methods. Meets: Three hours class, three hours laboratory. Prerequisite: CHEM 26 and PHYS 12. Offered fall semester.
-
4.00 Credits
A study of the principles of instrumental analysis, including signal/noise ratios, and the fundamentals of spectroscopy and chromatography. The components of a wide variety of instruments are examined in detail. Laboratory provides hands-on experience with modern analytical instrumentation, including gas and liquid chromatography, absorption and fluorescence, mass spectrometry, atomic absorption, Fourier Transform infrared and Fourier Transform nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopies. Meets: Three hours class, three hours laboratory. Prerequisite: CHEM 106. Offered spring semester in odd-numbered years.
-
8.00 Credits
A continuation of CHEM 30 but at a more advanced level. Normally a student is located in the same company as in CHEM 30 and has the same mentor. The work is more specialized and includes a project in such areas as research, computing, technical library work, marketing, production, or personnel. The exact project and objectives are determined before work begins. Emphasizes safety, use of the chemical literature, and reporting (oral and written). At least one on-site visit is made by the co-op director. Graded Pass/Unsatisfactory. Prerequisite: CHEM 30. Offered from June to December.
-
4.00 Credits
An advanced treatment of organic chemical reactions and processes pertaining to the design, syntheses, and analysis of various types of compounds, including biologically important medicinal and pharmaceutical agents, industrial and specialty chemicals and molecules of theoretical significance. The laboratory segment involves multistep organic synthesis, qualitative instrumental and advanced spectroscopic analysis. Meets: Three hours class, three hours laboratory. Prerequisite: CHEM 26. Offered spring semester in odd-numbered years.
