2.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Junior standing This course prepares students to read and interpret recently published scientific literature in the chemical sciences. Classes will be conducted in a workshop/seminar format in which participants present data and conclusions described in a scientific journal or their choosing. Discussions will focus on experimental design, validity of logic, and understanding modern research methods.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: MTH 141, PHY 111, or CHM 110; and one additional CHM or BCH course Biophysical chemistry will develop the thermodynamics required to understand several important biochemical systems. We will also study Fourier transform nuclear magnetic spectroscopy as it applies to complex biological macromolecules. We will develop a sophisticated understanding of transport and kinetics so that we can elucidate biochemical pathways.
-
2.00 Credits
Prerequisite: MTH 141, PHY 111, or CHM 110; and must have completed or be enrolled in CHM 438 or CHM 441 This course will use physical methods to elucidate structures. We will study the kinetics of chemical or biochemical reactions. We will develop expertise in spectroscopic methods of analysis using mass spectroscopy, infrared spectroscopy and pulsed methods of nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy in order to understand chemical and biochemical systems.

3.00 Credits
This course combines basic aspects of macroeconomics and microeconomics to develop the fundamental skills of economic thinking. The main focus is how individuals and societies choose to use limited resources to meet their unlimited wants. Students majoring in the Business and Economics program should choose the ECN 220-221 sequence. Liberal Education: Business.
-
3.00 Credits
Macroeconomic principles as applicable to a market economy. National income analysis. Money supply and the Federal Reserve System. Economic growth, fluctuations, and environmental decay. Monetary and fiscal policies. International trade and comparative advantage. Liberal Education: Business.
-
3.00 Credits
Microeconomic principles as applicable to individual firms, households, and markets. Theories of the firm, consumer demand, and markets. Perfect competition, monopoly, monopolistic competition, and oligopoly. Market failure, neighborhood effects, and environmental pollution. Income distribution: wages, rent, interest, and profit. Liberal Education: Business.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: ECN 221 The economics of environmental quality. Tools for understanding and analyzing environmental problems. Environmental quality will be treated as an economic good. Hazardous wastes, solid wastes, water quality, air quality, and social costs will be addressed. Liberal Education: Environmental Perspectives.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: ECN 220 or ECN 221 Natural resource economics is a microeconomic-based course that deals with the study of both renewal and depleting natural resources. The course develops theoretical and applied approaches to the understanding of complex issues associated with the intergenerational efficiency and equity problems related to such topics as mining, forestry, agriculture, and fisheries. The course is designed to give the student valuable policy options in natural resource economics to be used for decision making for private citizens, government representatives, and other environmentally focused endeavors. Liberal Education: Environment Perspectives.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: ECN 220 or ECN 221 This course is designed to expand the student's interest and expertise beyond the economic boundaries of the United States. Global economics is a macroeconomic-based study that teaches the theory, methodologies, and policies that have shaped the rapidly growing global economy. In conjunction with the traditional analysis of the global economy, the course will examine such issues as global environmental problems, trading relationships, and the increasing disparity between the rich and poor nations of the world. A key component of the course is to develop policy options for improving the global economy for future generations. Liberal Education: Environmental Perspectives.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: ECN 221 and BUS 120 The purpose of this course is to develop a deeper understanding of the concepts, theories, and methodologies covered in the principles of microeconomics. The course examines the evolution of the microeconomic theory of the behavior of economic agents and how the behavior of economic agents and government influence efficiency and, to some extent, equity outcomes in the economy. Topics include perfect and imperfect competitions, consumer theory, externality analysis, general equilibrium, market power, and intertemporal decision-making under certainty and conditions. The course will utilize advanced mathematics techniques and help sharpen the student's skills in understanding economic discourse.
