8.00 Credits
8 sem. hrs. Prereq.: Senior standing, consent of the department. Provides a supervised professional experience off campus. Potential sites include clinical settings, government agencies, conservation groups, and zoos. Placement is the student's responsibility, with the support of the Career Education Center and the approval of the department. Arrangements for satisfying this independent learning requirement should be made with the student's advisor or BIOL 370 coordinator before the end of the junior year. Staff.
-
6.00 Credits
4 sem. hrs. Focuses on chemistry and biochemistry of drugs, including a historical perspective and modern methods of drug design. Introduces chemical principles using a topical approach. Topics may include over-the-counter drugs such as diet pills, non-drugs such as tobacco and alcohol, and legal and illegal drugs. Six hours per week, variable lecture/laboratory. For non-science students. Canfield.
-
4.00 Credits
4 sem. hrs. Introduces chemical principles on a need-to-know basis in the framework of social, political, economic, and ethical issues. Students develop critical thinking skills and learn the chemistry needed to assess risks and benefits in making informed decisions about technology-based issues in contemporary life. For non-science students. Lecture and laboratory. Gurney.
-
4.00 Credits
4 sem. hrs. Prereq.: Completion of the competency in basic mathematics requirement or MATH 101 or MATH 102. Designed for students majoring in nursing, physical therapy, or nutrition. This course is a Learning Community with BIOL 113 and includes special emphasis on clinical applications of chemistry and biology. Covers basic concepts with special reference to inorganic compounds, including chemical equations, the periodic table, chemical bonding, and equilibrium. Assumes no previous knowledge of the subject or sophisticated background in mathematics. Laboratory correlates with and amplifies the lecture material and presents fundamental laboratory techniques, including instrumental methods. Three lectures, one discussion period, and one laboratory per week. Gurney.
-
4.00 Credits
4 sem. hrs. Prereq.: CHEM 111 or CHEM 113. Covers nature of the covalent bond, structure of organic compounds, and their reactions and reaction mechanisms. Introduces structure and biochemical functions of compounds important to life. Three lectures, one discussion period, and one laboratory per week. For concentrators in paramedical or science-related fields. Lee.
-
4.00 Credits
4 sem. hrs. Prereq.: A satisfactory score on the Simmons chemistry placement examination. Provides a quantitative development of a few fundamental topics: connections between chemical behavior and molecular structure, with special reference to molecular modeling; dynamic chemical processes; and energy, entropy, and chemical equilibrium. Emphasizes applications of chemistry to real-world problems. Laboratory introduces quantitative techniques, including instrumental methods, for studying chemical systems. Three lectures, one discussion period, and one laboratory per week. Berger.
-
4.00 Credits
4 sem. hrs. Prereq.: CHEM 111 or CHEM 113. Covers fundamental concepts of atomic structure, hybridization, molecular orbitals, and structure of organic molecules. Surveys functional groups, classes of organic compounds, and their reactions. Provides in-depth mechanistic study of those reactions, involving energies, stereochemistry, equilibrium, and reaction rate theory. Three lectures, two discussion periods, and one laboratory per week. Gurney.
-
2.00 Credits
2 sem. hrs. Provides a hands-on introduction to the use of computer methods for discovery and assessment of novel materials. Teaches the use of a variety of molecular and materials modeling software and presents the principles, benefits, and pitfalls associated with this approach to the study of materials. Emphasizes modeling projects and genuine research applications of computer modeling. Soltzberg.
-
4.00 Credits
4 sem. hrs. Prereq.: CHEM 114 or CHEM 112. Covers chemical processes in living organisms, with special emphasis on human nutrition. Studies carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and enzymes; their function in living systems; and their metabolic pathways and regulation. Three lectures per week. Canfield.
-
4.00 Credits
4 sem. hrs. Prereq.: CHEM 114 or CHEM 112 with consent of the instructor. Extends CHEM 114 to consider additional classes of organic compounds and the more intimate relationship between structure and reactivity as expressed in mechanistic terms. Three lectures, two discussion periods, and one laboratory per week. Lee.
