4.00 Credits
Introduces the biology of microorganisms and their importance to humans, with special emphasis on bacteria and viruses. The course consists of three hours of lecture and three hours of laboratory per week. There is an additional laboratory fee for this course. Formerly BIO 449 General Microbiology. 4 credits Prerequisites: CHEM 221, CHEM 222, and a 300-level biology course or permission of instructor
-
3.00 Credits
Studies the principles of heredity, population genetics, and modern data collecting from karyotyping to sequencing. Attention is given to data analysis in the systematics field from phenetics to cladistics. The evolution of plant and animal kingdoms is analyzed in view of all the data now available and the paleontological data. The course consists of two hours of lecture and one hour of discussion of journal readings per week. This course is typically taken in the senior year. Formerly BIO 405 Evolution. 3 credits Prerequisites: BIOL 112, BIOL 241, and a 300- levelBIOL course
-
3.00 Credits
Provides practical experience in an area of applied biology, such as in a hospital laboratory or museum. Students must make special arrangements with the Program Chair. Formerly BIO 361 Internship. Credits arranged Prerequisites: Permission of Program Chair
-
3.00 Credits
Provides an opportunity for guided research participation. Formerly BIO 451 Research Studies. Credits arranged Prerequisites: Permission of Program Chair
-
4.00 Credits
Focuses on chemistry in the news, including the energy crisis, global warming, acid rain, radioactivity, food, and drugs. These topics are used to introduce the concepts of chemistry and biochemistry to the non-science major. It is recommended that this course be taken after completion of the Area I math requirement. There is an additional laboratory fee for this course. Formerly CHE 101 Chemistry in a Changing World. 4 credits FLC Area IV
-
4.00 Credits
Introduces some of the general principles of chemistry. Topics include stoichiometry and chemical reactions; the structure and properties of atoms and molecules; chemical bonding; thermochemistry; and acid base chemistry. This course emphasizes active student involvement; many concepts are introduced via direct experimentation. Computers are used extensively. There is an additional laboratory fee for this course. Formerly CHE 105 Fundamentals of Chemistry I. 4 credits Prerequisites: MATH 123 (may be taken concurrently) FLC Area IV
-
4.00 Credits
Continues the study of basic chemical principles, focusing on thermodynamics, kinetics, and chemical equilibrium. There is an additional laboratory fee for this course. Formerly CHE 106 Fundamentals of Chemistry II. 4 credits Prerequisites: CHEM 111 with a grade of ""C"" or higher General Education Knowledge and Inquiry
-
4.00 Credits
Introduces students to basic concepts in chemistry, including the nature of matter, chemical reactions, stoichiometry, solutions, principles of organic chemistry, and the chemistry of the most important biomolecules. The course also introduces students to the proper use of basic laboratory equipment as well as basic laboratory techniques. Lab experiments are designed to provide the student with the tools to understand connections between theory and results found in the lab. 4 credits General Education Requirements: Knowledge and Inquiry (Science and Mathematics)
-
3.00 Credits
Provides students with a basic knowledge of organic chemistry through an exploration of the properties and reactions of carbon compounds, including structure and bonding, polarization, isomerism, stereochemistry, equilibrium, reaction types, and synthesis. Will ordinarily be taken with the laboratory (CHEM 223). Formerly CHE 231 Organic Chemistry I. 3 credits Prerequisites: CHEM 111 with a grade of ""C"" or higher; or permission of instructor
-
3.00 Credits
Applies the concepts learned in Organic Chemistry I to new classes of compounds. The course includes a further investigation of substitution and elimination reactions, and the utility of infrared spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance in determining organic structure is emphasized. Students learn about reactions and mechanisms pertaining to alkyl halides, aromatic compounds, alcohols, ethers, and a variety of carbonyl compounds. A working knowledge of the reactions covered in both semesters of will enable students to develop multistep syntheses leading from starting material to product. Will ordinarily be taken with the laboratory (CHEM 224). Formerly CHE 233 Organic Chemistry II. 3 credits Prerequisites: CHEM 221 with a grade of ""C"" or higher
