-
4.00 Credits
Through lecture and lab experience, students will be exposed to and will demonstrate an understanding of basic concepts in chemistry such as nomenclature, stoichometry, thermochemistry, the periodic table, the electronic structure, bonding, and the gas laws. Prerequisite: Two years of high school algebra or any mathematics course numbered 100 or above. Offered fall term.
-
4.00 Credits
Through lecture and lab experience, students will be exposed to and will demonstrate an understanding of the factors that determine the speed and extent of chemical reactions - kinetics, equilibria, thermodynamics, and electrochemistry. Prerequisite: CHM 125. Offered spring term.
-
4.00 Credits
Organic Chemistry is the chemistry of carbon and its compounds. Organic molecules are building blocks of life. Proteins, fats, sugars, nucleic acids are some examples of important organic molecules. However, organic chemistry also includes synthetic compounds, such as polyesters, plastics, and countless other materials used in every day life. Through lecture and laboratory, students successfully completing the course will demonstrate an understanding of organic reactions, syntheses, mechanistic, and structural studies of organic compounds. Students will also learn classical organic laboratory skills and instrumentation, such as nuclear magnetic resonance, infrared spectroscopy, chromatography, and mass spectroscopy. Prerequisite: CHM 126 . Offered fall term.
-
4.00 Credits
This course is a continuation of CHM 205 and will teach students advanced organic reactions, syntheses, mechanistic, and structural studies of organic compounds. Furthermore, students will learn the organic synthesis of proteins and DNA. Through lecture and laboratory, students successfully completing the course will demonstrate an understanding of organic synthesis, organic laboratory skills, and instrumentation, such characterization of unknowns, nuclear magnetic resonance, infrared spectroscopy, chromatography, and mass spectroscopy. Prerequisite: CHM 205. Offered spring term.
-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
An opportunity for supervised, independent study of a particular topic based on the interest of the student and the availability and approval of the faculty
-
4.00 Credits
An introduction to modern analytical techniques, including sampling, sample preparation, instrument calibration and analysis. Students successfully completing the course will demonstrate an understanding of aqueous solution equilibria and statistical treatment of data. Lecture and laboratory. Prerequisite: CHM 126. Offered fall term.
-
4.00 Credits
A survey of modern instruments - their components and uses. Through lecture and laboratory, students successfully completing the course will demonstrate an understanding of spectroscopy and chromatography which provides the bulk of the material, with emphasis on method development. Prerequisite: CHM 303 or permission. Offered alternate spring terms.
-
4.00 Credits
The study of structures, properties, and reactivities of selected elements. Students successfully completing the course will demonstrate an understanding of modern theories of chemical bonding, transition metal and organometallic chemistry, as well as newly discovered compounds. Lecture and laboratory. Prerequisite: CHM 126. Offered alternate spring terms.
-
2.00 Credits
An introduction to research techniques in chemistry, experimental design, literature searching methods, scientific writing, record keeping, and ethical perspectives. Students successfully completing the course will demonstrate an understanding of several scientific topics, investigate them thoroughly in the scientific literature and present their result in a written and oral setting. This report will include an original research proposal that will be pursued in Research II and III. Prerequisite: Chemistry major and junior standing; CHM 126 and CHM 205, or permission from instructor. Offered spring terms.
-
4.00 Credits
Biochemistry studies the organic chemistry of compounds and processes occurring in living organisms. This course teaches the efforts to understand biology within the context of chemistry and how molecular structure and function relate to metabolic cycles. Students successfully completing the course will demonstrate an understanding of classical biochemistry techniques, such as protein purifications and enzyme kinetics. Lecture and laboratory. Prerequisite: CHM 205. Offered spring term.
