4.00 Credits
The basic principles of chemistry are covered, giving students a foundation for the various technologies. Topics include methods of measurement, temperature and heat, atomic structure, bonding, chemical nomenclature, chemical equations, stoichiometry, gas laws, solutions, acids and bases, electrochemistry and chemical equilibrium. Laboratory work reinforces the basic principles and introduces analytical techniques. Students retaking this course must repeat both the lab and lecture.
Prerequisite:
MTH 013 or MTH 033 or MTH 070 or MTH 091
-
4.00 Credits
Reviews inorganic topics such as the periodic table, atomic structure, bonding, formulas, chemical equations, solutions, and acids and bases. Organic chemistry topics covered are hydrocarbons, alcohols, phenyls, ethers, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, esters, amines, and amino acids. Structure, nomenclature and reactions of the classes of organic compounds are emphasized. Laboratory work covers and reinforces concepts such as physical and chemical properties, stoichiometry, acid-base titration, reactions of various classes of organic compounds, specific tests for those classes, and analytical techniques both on the macrom and microscale levels. Students retaking this or equivalent course must repeat both lab and lecture. The lecture portion of this course if offered on the web, the lab portion must be taken on campus.
Prerequisite:
CHM 095 or CHM 105 or CHM111
-
5.00 Credits
The first semester of a two-semester sequence, the course gives students a solid foundation in general chemistry. Topics include measurement, structures of atoms, molecules and ions, inorganic chemical nomenclature, chemical reactions and stoichiometry, acid-base, and oxidation-reduction reactions, gases and the kinetic-molecular theory, thermochemistry, electronic structure, periodicity, chemical bonding and molecular geometry. Lab work reinforces basic principles and emphasizes analytical techniques. (Fulfills Science Elective requirement in Art and Sciences program). Students retaking this course must repeat both the lab and lecture.
Prerequisite:
MTH 070 or MTH 096
-
5.00 Credits
A continuation of CHM 121, which covers states of matter and intermolecular forces, properties of solutions, chemical kinetics, chemical equilibrium, acid-base and complex ion equilibria, chemical thermodynamics, electrochemistry, nuclear chemistry, coordination compounds, organic chemistry and chemistry of selected elements and materials. Lab work reinforces basic principles and emphasizes analytical techniques and includes qualitative analysis of cations. (Fulfills Science requirement in arts and sciences program for pre-math major, pre-science major and pre-engineering major). Students retaking this course must repeat both the lab and lecture.
Prerequisite:
CHM 121

5.00 Credits
The first semester of a two-semester sequence. The advanced course with emphasis on the relationship between structure and reactivity. Topics include bonding in carbon compounds, functional groups, organic acid-base reactions, nomenclature, physical properties, structure, synthesis, and reaction mechanisms for alkanes, alkyl halides, alkenes, alkynes, stereochemistry, structure determination, and radical reactions. Laboratory work covers the separation techniques, instrumental analysis and microscale manipulations. (Can fulfill Sciences requirement in Associate of Science Degree programs. Students retaking this course must repeat both the lab and lecture.
Prerequisite:

3.00 Credits
Addresses the philosophical, historical and operational aspects of criminal justice system and the challenges to the system by world terrorism. Emphasis is on the three major components of the system: police, courts and corrections. Also examines career paths and opportunities in the criminal justice profession.
-
3.00 Credits
Examines the juvenile justice legal system regarding parental and public official responsibilities for child welfare and protection through apprehension, detention, adjudication, reporting and court mandated procedures. The history, philosophy and development of the juvenile justice system are examined as well as the various laws and court decisions relating to child abuse, child neglect, juvenile rights and alternative sanctions.
-
3.00 Credits
Examines complex relationships between the police and the public they serve. Programs and procedures for enhancing that relationship are presented. Principles, techniques and behaviors that promote community service and effective interaction with multicultural, multiethnic and other societal groups encountered by the police officer are studied. Also covered are techniques of community problem solving, crime prevention and community efforts relating to terrorism. Prerequisites waived for Academy students.
