4.00 Credits
Prerequisites: CATL W1120. The first part of Columbia University´s comprehensive intermediate Catalan sequence. The main objectives of this course are to continue developing communicative competence - reading, writing, speaking and listening comprehension - and to further acquaint students with Catalan cultures.
-
4.00 Credits
Corequisites: Catalan 1201 or the equivalent. Catalan 1202 is the second part of Columbia University's intermediate Catalan sequence. Course goals are to enhance student exposure to various aspects of Catalan culture and to consolidate and expand reading, writing, speaking, and listening skills.
-
3.00 Credits
Course objectives are to examine manifestations of cultural production in the Catalan-speaking world and to perfect Catalan language skills. Topics to be discussed include: bilingualism and language as the marker of "authentic" national identity; the influx of immigration and the constant redefinition of all things Catalan; the very locally rooted and at the same time very international outlook of the avant-garde from Foix to TÃ pies; the protest song and popular vis-Ã -vis Hollywood culture; the zombie-like estrangement of characters in post-Civil War fiction. By the end of the course, students will have a broad-based yet nuanced grasp of fundamental aspects of Catalan cultures.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisites: Introductory probability and statistics and basic programming skills. Provides comprehensive introduction to computational techniques for analyzing genomic data including DNA, RNA and protein structures; microarrays; transcription and regulation; regulatory, metabolic and protein interaction networks. The course covers sequence analysis algorithms, dynamic programming, hidden Markov models, phylogenetic analysis, Bayesian network techniques, neural networks, clustering algorithms, support vector machines, Boolean models of regulatory networks, flux based analysis of metabolic networks and scale-free network models. The course provides self-contained introduction to relevant biological mechanisms and methods.
-

Structures of amino acids, lipids, carbohydrates, nucleic acids. Protein structure, and folding. Enzyme mechanisms, kinetics, allostery. Membranes. Protein and genetic engineering. Catabolism and anabolism, with emphasis on chemical intermediates, metabolic energy, catalysis by specific enzymes, regulation. Science Requirement: Partial Fulfillment.
-
5.00 Credits
Prerequisites: One year of organic chemistry, one year of biology, four semesters of chemistry and biology laboratory , and CHEM BC3282 or BIOC C3501 or BCHM G4021. Corequisites: BIOC C3501 or BCHM G4021. Fundamental techniques used to isolate, characterize, and study nucleic acids, proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids. Theory and application of buffers, spectrophotometry, cell fractionation, centrifugation, extraction, chromatographic separations, electrophoresis, radioactivity. Enzyme purification and kinetics. Chemical and enzymatic assys. NMR and MS structure determination. Lab Required.

3.00 Credits
but only one section of lab hours required.
-
3.50 Credits
Preparation equivalent to one year of high school chemistry is assumed and concurrent registration in Calculus I. Students lacking such preparation should plan independent study of chemistry over the summer or take CHEM F0001 before taking C1403. Topics include stoichiometry, states of matter, chemical equilibria, acids and bases, chemical thermodynamics, nuclear properties, electronic structures of atoms, periodic properties, chemical bonding, molecular geometry, introduction to organic and biological chemistry, solid state and materials science, polymer science and macromolecular structures, chemical kinetics, coordination chemistry, and electrochemistry. Although C1403 and C1404 are separate courses, students are expected to take both terms sequentially. the order of presentation of topics may differ from the order presented here, and from year to year. Recitation Section Required.
-
3.50 Credits
Corequisites: Calculus II. Topics include: Gases (Kinetic Theory of Gases); Binary Collision Model for Chemical Reactions; Chemical Kinetics; Acid-base Equilibria; Thermochemistry (Thermodynamics I); Thermodynamics II Spontaneous Processes; Chemical Bonding in Polyatomic Molecules. Recitation Section Required.
-
1.00 Credits
A one-hour weekly lecture, discussion, and critical analysis of topics that reflect problems in modern chemistry, with emphasis on current areas of active chemical research.
