0.00 - 4.00 Credits
PHYSIOLOGICAL CHEMISTRY I~ This course is intended for non-science majors, and is particularly aimed at those entering various healthcare fields, environmental studies, neuroscience, and those wishing to teach elementary school or middle school. This course will provide an introduction to the principles of inorganic and organic chemistry. Topics include: atomic theory and nuclear chemistry, the periodic table, chemical bonds, states of matter, chemical reactivity, principles of equilibrium and reaction rates, acids and bases, and the structure and reactivity of organic compounds including alkyl, aryl, alcohol, carbonyl, and amino compounds. Activities in this course will emphasize analytical thinking and problem-solving particularly in the area of quantitative calculations.

PHYSIOLOGICAL CHEMISTRY II~ This is the second semester of a two course sequence intended for non-science majors, and is particularly aimed at those entering various healthcare fields, environmental studies, neuroscience, and those wishing to teach elementary school or middle school. This course will build upon the inorganic and organic chemistry topics introduced in the previous course, and explore how they apply to biological systems. Topics include: the structure and properties of the various food groups (carbohydrates, lipids, proteins), biological reactions including enzyme kinetics, metabolic pathways and bioenergetics, genetic expression including DNA and RNA structure. Activities will continue to involve analytical thinking and problem-solving skills, and will be geared towards the application of chemical principles to the structure and function of biological systems. Prerequisite: Chemistry 161
-
0.00 - 4.00 Credits
PHYSICAL SCIENCE~A non-majors course. This is a comprehensive but not highly technical presentation of the essential concepts of physical science. While the subject matter is derived from the major branches of physical science (astronomy, chemistry, geology, meteorology and physics), it is studied as an integrated interpretation of the physical world. The laboratory is designed to be of special application for the prospective elementary teacher through the establishment of demonstrations and experiments illustrating salient concepts.
-
0.00 - 4.00 Credits
INTRODUCTORY ELECTRONICS~An introduction to the principles of electronics and the uses of electronic components. The laboratory will investigate the fundamentals of linear and digital circuits while using basic laboratory instruments such as oscilloscopes, waveform generators, and digital multimeters. Topics will include basic circuit theory, passive devices, junction and field effect transistors, operational amplifiers, digital logic, integrated circuit chips and optical solid-state devices. This course is designed for physics and chemistry majors and entails a considerable amount of problem solving. While not required, a familiarity with calculus would be helpful. Prerequisite: high-school physics, or permission. Also listed as Physics 208.
-
0.00 - 4.00 Credits
INTRODUCTION TO ORGANIC CHEMISTRY~Introduction to Organic Chemistry. A survey of the principles of organic chemistry with emphasis on functional groups. Nomenclature, structure, synthetic methods, and reactions are the primary focuses. An introduction to isomerism, stereo-chemistry, and conformational analysis is included. Reaction energetics and implications for a selected series of reaction mechanisms are also examined. The laboratory introduces basic techniques of isolation, characterization, and synthesis of organic compounds.
-
0.00 - 4.00 Credits
INTRODUCTION TO INORGANIC CHEMISTRY~The concepts of inorganic chemistry in light of modern theory. Atomic structure, chemical periodicity, bonding, group theory, coordination chemistry with crystal field theory, and reaction mechanisms of complex formation are considered. Descriptive chemistry and the often neglected chemistry of the lanthanide and actinide elements are also examined. The laboratory introduces basic inorganic laboratory techniques for the synthesis and characterization of inorganic compounds. Prerequisite: Chemistry 121, 220.
-
0.00 - 4.00 Credits
QUANTIATATIVE ANALYSIS~An in-depth study of theory and practice of analytical methods including gravimetric, volumetric, redox, electrochemical, compleximetric and spectrophotometric, and an introduction to modern instrumentation. Intended for students of biological, chemical, medical, and physical sciences. Prerequisite: Chemistry 121.
-
3.00 Credits
HUMAN NUTRITION~The requirements of nutrition for individuals and families as related to health and well-being are examined in this course as well as the functions, sources and interactions of essential nutrients. Food groups are studied and methods of nutrition education are explored. Prerequisite: Chemistry 162
