-
3.00 Credits
For the advanced student who wants to refine techniques and aesthetics in a specialized area of ceramics. Kiln firing required. Group critiques.
-
3.00 Credits
Continues the study of the structure and properties of matter. Topics include the behaviors of solids, liquids, and solutions, chemical kinetics, equilibrium phenomena, entropy and free energy, electrochemistry, and nuclear chemistry.
-
1.00 Credits
Continues the development of chemical laboratory skills with experiments in chromatography, freezing point depression, Beers Law and its applications to kinetics and equilibrium measurements, Le Chatelier’s principle, titrations of weak acids and bases, and measurements of simple electrochemical cells.
-
3.00 Credits
Continues the study or carbon compounds with an introduction to modern spectroscopic characterization techniques. Also includes the chemistry of aromatic compounds, ethers, epoxides, aldehydes, ketones, and carboxylic acids and their derivatives. In addition to the focus on reaction mechanisms developed in CHEM 311, emphasis is placed on the techniques and strategies of synthetic chemistry.
-
1.00 Credits
Continues the development of the laboratory skills of organic chemistry. Includes the characterization of alcohols, alkyl halides, aldehydes, ketones, and esters, as well as the development of more complex multi-step synthetic sequences. The fundamentals of polymer synthesis, photochemistry, and instrumental analysis are also explored.
-
3.00 Credits
Study of the structure and function of biologically important molecules and their roles in life processes. Topics include the flow of gene expression, oxygen-transport proteins, enzyme dynamics, membranes, energy metabolism, and muscle contraction.
-
3.00 Credits
An interdisciplinary course in which the power of Lake Tahoe and the Sierra Nevada Mountains is employed to inspire the possibilities in the person. This course recognizes the dynamic relationship between the world of the human psyche and the natural world. It describes how an understanding of the relationships informs a sense of self, as well as encourages ethical treatment of the environment. Using a highly kinesthetic as well as technological framework, students will learn academic concepts through exposure to examples and applications in the Tahoe Basin.
-
3.00 Credits
This course teaches the processes used to develop an idea - whether of a for-profit or not-for-profit product or service - from initial conception to organizational launch and subsequent sustainability. Specific process elements include the creation of a simple (2-page) business plan and market strategy, testing for financial viability, and preparing to "open for business" and operate thereafter. The course provides a broad exposure to the application of a wide spectrum of concepts and tools useful in one's personal, as well as professional life: formulating and communicating key messages, orally and in writing; value creation; budgeting resources; developing and executing a plan of action; collaborating with others.
-
3.00 Credits
This course introduces students to natural systems on earth, and how humans are molded by them and affect them. It concerns the connection of economic, ethical, and physical environments, and guides students through the study of environmental and economic sustainability, and how they affect human equity treatment. It also reinforces students’ numeracy skills on probability, graphic, calculation, and statistics, in an environmental context that includes application of Tahoe Basin.
