4.00 Credits
A one semester course with laboratory designed primarily for Dental Hygiene students and Biomedical Engineering Technology students. Basic principles of general, organic and biochemistry are presented with emphasis on their applications to health science. Topics include measurement, states of matter, bonding theory, solutions, acids, buffers and pH, and the structure and function of carbohydrates, lipids, sterols, amino acids and proteins and a molecular approach to enzymatic action, digestion, metabolism and nutrition. Prerequisite(s): High School Sequential (Integrated) Math 1 and High School chemistry with Laboratory or CHM 124 (3,2) 4 credits
-
4.00 Credits
The first part of a two-semester sequence in General Chemistry Principles with laboratory. This course covers the qualitative and quantitative aspects of scientific measurement, the nature of matter, gases, liquids and solids, energy, atomic theory, properties of elements, chemical bonding, molecular structure and properties, stoichiometry, thermochemistry and solutions. Prerequisite: High School Sequential (Integrated) Math 2 required. (3,3) 4 credits
-
4.00 Credits
A continuation of General Chemistry Principles I, which includes laboratory. Topics include: solutions and their colligative properties, acids and bases, chemical equilibrium, ionic equilibrium, pH, buffers, titration curves, oxidation and reduction balancing, electrochemistry, chemical kinetics, the covalent bond and the shape of molecules. Prerequisite: CHM 152 or equivalent. (3,3) 4 credits
-
4.00 Credits
An abridged course in organic chemistry designed to provide a background in the fundamentals of nomenclature, mechanisms, structures and syntheses. This course is suggested for those interested in fields related to chemistry which require a general rather than a detailed knowledge of the compounds of carbon. Topics to be covered include: alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, aromatic hydrocarbons, steroisomerism, spectroscopy, halogen compounds, alcohols, ethers, aldehydes and ketones, carboxylic acids and nitrogen compounds. Prerequisite(s): CHM 124 or CHM 152 & CHM 153 or equivalent (3,3) 4 credits
-
5.00 Credits
A study of the compounds of carbon involving a thorough integration of observation and theory and emphasizing the relationships between structures, properties, mechanisms and reactions. This course, intended for science and pre-professional majors, covers topics such as bonding and structure, alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, cycloaliphatic hydrocarbons, sterochemistry, dienes, benzene, electrophilic aeromatic substitution, arenes, spectroscopy and structure determination and includes laboratory. Prerequisite(s): CHM 153 or equivalent (3,4) 5 credits
-
5.00 Credits
A continuation of CHM 270. Topics covered include: alkyl and aryl halides, alcohols and phenols, ethers and epoxides, carboxylic acids, esters, anhydrides, aldenhydes, ketones, amines, amino acids, carbohydrates, heterocycles and polymers. Prerequisite(s): CHM 270 or equivalent (3,4) 5 credits
-
4.00 Credits
A one semester biochemistry course involving the fundamentals of important carbohydrates, lipids, amino acids, proteins and nucleic acids. Metabolic pathways and their interrelationships, such as glycolysis, TCA, electron-transport system, fatty-acid syntheses, and beta-oxidation are also discussed. Emphasis is also placed on chemical tests for important biochemical substances. Important enzymes, cofactors, and vitamins are presented. Laboratory work includes some clinical applications of the above topics. Prerequisite(s): CHM 160 or CHM 271 (3,3) 4 credits
-
4.00 Credits
This course consists of the discussion of carbohydrates, protein and lipid metabolism, chemistry of liver, kidney and respiratory functions, role of enzymes, vitamins and hormones, monitoring of therapeutic drugs, and drug interactions and toxicities. The laboratory experience focuses on methodologies and interpretation of diagnostic tests. Prerequisite(s): High School Sequential (Integrated) Math 1 and High School Chemistry with Laboratory or CHM 124, plus BIO 170/171 (3,2) 4 credits
-
4.00 Credits
An introductory course designed to study the chemistry of materials. Topics include semiconductors, corrosion, intro-duction to organic chemistry, polymer chemistry, polymeric substances, ceramics, composite materials. Prerequisite(s): High School Sequential (Integrated) Math 2, one year of college Physics, plus CHM 152 or equivalent (3,3) 4 credits
-
4.00 Credits
A course to develop skills in analytical thinking and problem solving: logic sets, induction, relations and functions. Representation of algorithms: problem analysis and understanding, pre and post-conditions, invariants and verification. Introduction to sorting and searching algorithms.
