4.00 Credits
A study of the fundamentals of chemistry directed specifically to the area of fire protection is presented. It includes measurements, matter, atomic theory, chemical reactions, solids, liquids and gases, combustion, heat of reactions, and methods of extinguishment. The laboratory experiments are selected to reinforce the lecture subject matter. Fire Science students only. Lecture ( 45.00) Laboratory ( 45.00) Prerequisites: MTH-029
-
4.00 Credits
A survey of inorganic chemistry, organic chemistry, and biochemistry with emphasis on the practical aspects is presented. The laboratory experiments are designed to reinforce the lecture subject matter. Need a grade of "C" or better in either high school chemistry or the Preparation for Chemistry course, and a grade of "C" or better in high school biology. This course is designed specifically for those applying to or enrolled in the Dental Hygiene Program and may not transfer as a Chemistry course. Lecture ( 45.00) Laboratory ( 45.00) Prerequisites: CHM-010 and MTH-029
-
4.00 Credits
This course introduces the fundamental principles and concepts of chemistry, including such topics as measurement, atomic structure, nuclear processes, the periodic table, chemical bonds, solids, liquids, gases, stoichiometry, solutions, rates of chemical reactions(catalysis) oxidation-reduction, acids and bases; biologically active molecules, including proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, and drugs; and a study of alternate energy sources, such as solar energy, nuclear energy and biomass. Throughout the course, the above topics will be related to the broader environmental, social and economic issues, such as, but not limited to, the ozone shield and the possibility of global warming relative to modern technological society. This course is designed for students not planning a career in science. Lecture ( 45.00) Laboratory ( 45.00) Prerequisites: ENG-101 and MTH-029
-
4.00 Credits
This is an introductory course in forensic science intended for criminal justice students and others interested in a laboratory science. Basic material in chemistry, biochemistry, mathematics and physics will be presented so that students have the requisite background to understand and appreciate the role of the crime laboratory in modern forensics. Case studies of actual investigations illustrate forensic applications. Laboratory experiments demonstrate modern forensic techniques. Lecture ( 45.00) Laboratory ( 45.00) Prerequisites: ENG-013, ENG-023 and MTH-029
-
4.00 Credits
This course is designed for fine arts majors. The course will present some of the fundamental concepts of chemistry and introduce students to laboratory experimentation. Chemistry topics will be considered with particular regard to their applications in art. Fundamental chemistry topics to be discussed include experimental measurements; physical and chemical properties of materials; composition and structure of materials; the solid, liquid and gaseous states; dyes, visible spectroscopy and the perception of color; stoichiometry of chemical reactions; properties of solutions; rates of chemical reaction and catalysis; oxidation-reduction and acid-base reactions; pH; synthetic and natural polymers; and electrochemistry. Lecture ( 45.00) Laboratory ( 45.00) Prerequisites: ENG-101 and MTH-029
-
4.00 Credits
This course introduces students to the science and technology related to foods. Topics include the structure, function and metabolism of the three primary biomacromolecules (proteins, carbohydrates and lipids) as well as the effects of enzymes, vitamins and hormones on food metabolism. The course will also include the effects of temperature on food (storage and cooking) and the laboratory techniques used in the food science industry. Lecture ( 45.00) Laboratory ( 45.00) Prerequisites: FNS-105 and CHM-111, or FNS-130 and CHM-101
-
4.00 Credits
Fundamentals of Biochemistry will give the student a strong foundation in the basic topics of biochemistry: proteins, carbohydrates, lipids and nucleic acids. Laboratory exercises will prepare the student to perform current techniques critical to biochemical research. These include separation chemistry, enzyme analysis, molecule isolation and identification techniques. Data recording and analysis will be stressed. Lecture ( 45.00) Laboratory ( 45.00) Prerequisites: CHM-221 and BIO-111
-
4.00 Credits
This course is a study of the fundamental principles of organic chemistry with emphasis on reaction mechanisms. Topics covered include alkanes, stereochemistry, alkyl halides, alcohols, ethers, expoxides, solvents, alkenes, dienes, alkynes, and cyclic compounds. Laboratory topics include qualitative analysis and identification of compounds. Also, the experiments will elucidate the basic principles and mechanisms of organic chemistry. Lecture ( 45.00) Laboratory ( 45.00) Prerequisites: CHM-112
-
4.00 Credits
This course is a continuation of Organic Chemistry I. A detailed study of the synthesis, reaction mechanisms, and spectroscopy of aromatic compounds, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, auto- oxidation, carboxylic acid derivatives, amines, phenols, macromolecules, fats, carbohydrates, proteins, and nucleic acids is included. Laboratory experiments are used to develop student techniques and illustrate the principles involved. Lecture ( 45.00) Laboratory ( 45.00) Prerequisites: CHM-221
-
3.00 Credits
Introduction to Manufacturing is an introductory course in the use of hand tools, machine tools, and computer numerically controlled (CNC) machine tools used in modern machine shops and metal working factories. Students learn basic manufacturing techniques through lecture and demonstrations and then solidify, expand, and integrate this knowledge by making a series of projects in the shop. Lecture ( 30.00) Laboratory ( 30.00)
