4.00 Credits
Au Sable Institute. (See Off Campus Programs)
-
3.00 Credits
This course introduces techniques used to analyze protein structures at the atomic level and describes various research strategies to investigate the underlying molecular causes of disease. The course will then survey a variety of clinically significant human diseases for which the underlying cause is at least partially understood from the perspective of protein structure. An overview of strategies used in the pharmaceutical industry to develop effective therapies based on protein structure will be discussed. Three hours lecture. Offered spring in alternate years.
-
3.00 Credits
This course examines the foundational concepts and theories of inorganic chemistry and their applications. Major topics include coordination chemistry, symmetry and group theory, solid-state structures and energetics, and descriptive chemistry of the representative elements. Periodic properties are discussed systematically and bioinorganic applications are introduced. Offered online in summer.
-
3.00 Credits
This course is designed to expand the understanding of the principles of organic chemistry, with an emphasis on modern physical organic chemistry, building on the fundamental concepts developed in CHEM 211 and CHEM 212. The topics include qualitative molecular orbital theory, structure of stable organic molecules and reactive intermediates, thermodynamic analysis of acids and bases, modern concepts of stereochemistry, energy surfaces and kinetic analysis, strategies of catalysis, and a brief introduction to organometallic chemistry. The course will be completed with the discussion of organic reaction mechanisms. Offered spring in alternate year.
-
4.00 Credits
Lecture meetings include discussion of the theory, design and function of common analytical instrumentation in modern industrial and research laboratories. Laboratory work provides extensive hands-on experience in sample preparation and operation of instruments, including UV/VIS, FT-IR, AAS, FT-NMR, DSC, GC-FID, GC-MS and HPLC. Computerized data acquisition and manipulation is through the use of interfaced data stations. Includes formal lab report writing.Three hours lecture, three and one-half hours laboratory. Offered Spring in alternate years.

The laws of thermodynamics are described and applied to the gas phase, changes of state, chemical equilibria, and electrochemistry. Chemical kinetics and reaction dynamics are exammined. Course is divided into two-thirds thermodynamics and one-third kinetics. Laboratory projects emphasize collaborative work and extensive peer review of written reports.written reports, use of advanced instrumentation, symbolic math programming, and molecular modeling. Three hours lecture, four hours laboratory. Offered in spring in alternate years.

The content of this seminar-style course provides an overview of the chemical and business aspects of the chemical industry. Topics include the history of the chemical industry; sources of chemical feedstocks; the role of R & D and chemical engineering; patents and trade secrets; scale up and production; environmental and safety regulations; economic factors; marketing and sales; global trends. Both bulk and specialty chemicals will be considered. Current events and case studies will be emphasized and a plant tour may also be part of the course. A series of speakers from the industry will give seminars. Three hours lecture. Prerequisites: Minimum grade of C in CHEM 212/214. Open to science majors, and completes a minor in chemistry. Offered in alternate years.
