  • Chemistry 482: Advanced Chemistry Laboratory

    8.00 Credits
    Colgate University

    Staff Original research projects designed for student collaboration with faculty members provide a variety of laboratory experiences. The purpose is to build on and consolidate the student's previous experiences in literature searching, project design, use of modern instrumentation for data acquisition and analysis, problem solution, and oral and written communication of results. A minimum of eight hours of laboratory work per week are required, during each of two terms. Each student will give an oral presentation of his or her project at the weekly chemistry department seminar and submit written end-of-term reports. In the spring term, a student who is a candidate for a degree with honors will submit and defend a thesis in lieu of a written report. Pre- or co-requisites: CHEM 333 or 334 or 336.
