A study of the design and function of modern chemical instrumentation with applications to real systems. Electrochemical and spectrophometric methods of analysis and chromatographic separations are examined in detail. Prerequisites: CHE-270, CHE-371, and MCS-122. WRITD, Fall semester.
-
1.00 Credits
Topics include bonding theory, acid-base chemistry, transition metal chemistry, bioinorganic chemistry, and materials chemistry. A major emphasis of the class is the symmetry and group theory approach to molecular orbital theory, donor-acceptor theories, the electronic spectra, magnetic properties, and reaction mechanisms of coordination compounds, organometallic compounds, and catalysis. Prerequisites: CHE-258, CHE-371 and MCS-122. CHE-372 and MCS-221 are recommended. Spring semester.
-
0.00 Credits
Papers and discussions on chemical problems and research and on topics of current interest. Required each semester of junior and senior Chemistry majors. Fall and Spring semesters.
-
1.00 Credits
An introduction to the mythology of the ancient Greeks and Romans. The course surveys the major gods and heroes of classical antiquity, the most significant literary and artistic influences of classical myth, and the major schools of interpretation of myth. Illustrated lectures. Small-group discussions. Particular emphasis on the power of myth to represent meaning and value. LARS, Spring semester.
-
1.00 Credits
Reading and discussion of the "great books" from antiquity-the poems, plays, and essays that critically affected the course of Western thought and that have for centuries been the core of a traditional liberal arts education. Readings might include The Iliad of Homer, dialogues of Plato, Greek drama, and other works of philosophy and fiction. Topics discussed include the development of rational thought, ethics, education, or the relationship between human and divine, between individual and society, between nature and culture, and between love and death. LARS, Spring semester, odd years
-
1.00 Credits
A comprehensive study of the ancient Greek and Roman theatre. Students read and discuss a wide selection of classical tragedies and comedies and study ancient staging and production techniques, theatre architecture, the cultural context of Greco-Roman drama, and the influence of classical theatre on modern drama. ARTS, Spring semester, even years.
-
1.00 Credits
A chronological survey of Greek history and civilization from the Bronze Age to Alexander the Great. Readings from Homer, Herodotus, Thucydides, the tragedians, Aristophanes, and others. The class will concentrate on the rise and fall of democracy, on the nature of the Greek city state, and on the development of national consciousness in ancient Greece. HIPHI, Fall semester, odd years.
