1 to 4 credit hours Prerequisites: At least 16 hours in chemistry and junior or senior standing, or permission of the instructor Seminars and laboratory courses involving the detailed study of advanced topics in chemistry not encountered in other coursework. Selected subjects are nanoscience, photo-chemistry, polymer chemistry, advanced biochemistry, advanced inorganic chemistry, and advanced organic chemistry.
-
6.00 Credits
6 credit hours Prerequisites: FRS 140, English Proficiency Exam, junior standing, and at least 18 hours in chemistry The Senior Study requirement is fulfilled with this two-course sequence. Students develop a research proposal in an area of interest, complete independent research under the supervision of a faculty mentor, and present their findings in a formal thesis and seminar.
-
4.00 Credits
4 credit hours Prerequisite: Chemistry 264 or permission of the instructor An advanced study of the principles of instrument-based analytical methods including with emphasis on laboratory electronics, optics, computer interfacing of scientific instrumentation, atomic and molecular spectroscopy, chromatographic separation methods, and electroanalytical methods. The basic theory of operation, design, maintenance, sample preparation, and qualitative and quantitative analysis are discussed for a range of instruments including molecular and atomic absorption, infrared, Raman, fluorescence, nuclear magnetic resonance and mass spectrometry. Laboratory investigations involve experimental design, instrument design, qualitative and quantitative analyses using a variety of instrumental techniques, and computer interfacing and programming. Computer skills and a level of familiarity with the chemical literature are developed.
-
3.00 Credits
3 credit hours Prerequisites: Chemistry 122 and Mathematics 225 Quantum theory and the theoretical basis and symmetry arguments of molecular spectroscopy are central themes. Topics include: rotational, vibrational and electronic spectra, quantum restrictions, physical property determination, symmetry and group theoretical operations, eigenfucntions and operator notation, application of the Schrodinger wave equation, approximation methods in complex systems, the vector model of the atom, and spectroscopic state designation. Simulation, modeling and advanced graphical software are employed.
-
3.00 Credits
3 credit hours Prerequisites: Chemistry 122 and Mathematics 225 An advanced study of the physical, chemical and dynamical properties of molecular systems. Chemical thermodynamics and reaction kinetics are central themes. Topics include: Gibbsian and Maxwellian relationships; theoretical characterization of gases; spontaneity and equilibrium; calorimetry; colligative properties; vapor-liquid equilibria; composition diagrams; transport properties; determination of reaction mechanism; the steady-state approximation; transition sate theory; partition function; photochemistry and surface phenomena. Simulation, modeling and advanced graphical software are employed.
-
1.00 Credits
1 credit hour Prerequisite: Junior standing Professional activities such as professional ethical standards, laboratory safety concerns, electronic literature search strategies, instruction in scientific paper preparation, poster presentation, and delivery of a scientific talk using presentation software, are examined in a seminar setting. Trends and issues within the profession are discussed.
-
4.00 Credits
4 credit hours Prerequisite: Chemistry 316 and Biology 221 The molecular mechanism regulating metabolism, catabolism and the flow of genetic information in response to cellular stimuli are explored. Applications of biochemistry and molecular biology are discussed in the contexts of biotechnology, disease, and drug design. In the laboratory, students build on techniques introduced in prerequisite course to complete bioinformatics and molecular cloning projects that culminate with the expression, purification, and functional analysis of a selected protein.
-
2.00 Credits
2 credit hours Pre- or Co-requisite: Chemistry 391 Precision physico-chemical measurement using modern analytical methods and instrumentation. Colligative and molecular properties, thermodynamics and kinetics of chemical systems are investigated using modern spectroscopic methods (FT-IR, Raman, UV/fluorescence spectroscopy, NMR) as well as the classical methods of calorimetry, viscometry, polarimetry, refractometry, densitometry and surface tension determination.
