-
3.00 Credits
Three hours lecture per week. Prerequisite: CHEM 302. An introduction to carbohydrates, lipids, heterocyclic compounds, amino acids, proteins, and nucleic acids with particular emphasis on their role in physiological processes.
-
4.00 Credits
Three hours lecture and three hours laboratory per week. Prerequisites: A "C" or better in CHEM 104. The objective of this course is to provide an overview of (1) important chemical parameters relating to the environment and (2) important processes that affect the fates and effects of various pollutants. Basic principles of chemical behavior and assessment will be learned by application to the following topics: principles of environmental sampling and analysis, oxygen demand, nutrient enrichment, acidity and alkalinity, complexation, toxicology, partitioning behavior, and atmospheric oxidants. Major classes of contaminants will be addressed, with emphasis on aquatic pollutants. Students will gain elementary problem-solving skills and spreadsheet abilities. The course will consist of classroom lectures, field trips, group activities, and labs. It is geared toward students with a general chemistry background who are interested in chemical aspects of environmental issues.
-
4.00 Credits
Three hours lecture and three hours laboratory per week. Prerequisites: CHEM 301, MATH 140, and CHEM 222 or permission of instructor. This course will be an in-depth exploration of the fundamental scientific principles that dictate chemical processes in both natural and disturbed environments, with emphasis on aquatic ecosystems. The exact course content will vary with the skills and interests of the class, as well as on current environmental issues. Topics may include those offered in CHEM 304, but with a much stronger emphasis on the underlying chemical theory. Additional topics may include modeling, mass transport in environmental processes, and kinetics and thermodynamics of environmental processes. The course will consist of classroom lectures, field trips, group activities, and labs. There will be a strong emphasis on individual and class projects that address environmental issues of local concern. It is geared toward students with strong chemistry and quantitative backgrounds who wish to pursue technical post baccalaureate studies or technical careers in the environmental field.
-
1.00 Credits
One hour lecture session per week. Pass/Fail only. Co-requisite: CHEM 301 or CHEM 302. Problem solving sessions are designed to provide guidance for students in solving organic chemistry problems. Problems are derived from the textbook, worksheets, and journals. This course may be taken more than once for a maximum of two credit hours.
-
3.00 Credits
Three hours lecture per week. Prerequisite: A "C" or better in CHEM 104. This course is designed to enable students to speak effectively in various professional speaking situations. These include: interviews, professional introductions, and formal research presentations. Students will be required to make presentations in differing relevant formats and styles.
-
4.00 Credits
Three hours lecture and three hours laboratory per week. Prerequisite: CHEM 103-104. Modern theories of bonding, coordination chemistry, trends and properties of the elements.
-
4.00 Credits
Three hours lecture and three hours laboratory per week. Prerequisite: A "C" or better in both CHEM 301 and CHEM 301L. An advanced course that focuses on important topics from inorganic chemistry. Topics include: coordination chemistry, bonding models, application of spectroscopy, and other topics of current interest. Laboratory includes experiments that are designed to illustrate the lecture material. Formal scientific papers of research and/or laboratory results will be required.
-
4.00 Credits
Three hours lecture and four hours laboratory per week. Prerequisite: A "C" or better in CHEM 104. A study of the theory and application of modern instrumentation methods of analysis. Emphasis will be placed on ultraviolet-visible, atomic absorption, infrared and Raman spectroscopy, mass spectroscopy, gas and liquid chromatography, and solvent extraction.
-
1.00 Credits
Three hours laboratory per week. Prerequisites: A "C" or better in CHEM 104 and consent of instructor. A course designed for students wishing to develop advanced laboratory techniques usually not encountered in other courses.
