2.00 Credits
This course is a survey of polymer science, including terminology, synthesis, structures, properties, applications and processing techniques of commercially signifi cant polymers. (General chemistry, 1016-251 or equivalent) Class 2, Credit 2 (F)
-
4.00 Credits
The synthesis of high molecular weight organic polymers and their properties are introduced. Mechanisms of step growth and chain growth polymerization reactions, polymer reactions and degradation are also considered. The end properties of polymers can be "tailored" by their method of synthesis.Controlled synthesis is particularly achievable when using coordinative polymerization, which will be discussed in detail. (1013-433) Class 4, Credit 4 ( F-X*)

4.00 Credits
Although most polymeric materials fi nd utility as solids, polymer fabrication and characterization techniques are general liquid-phase processes. This course is concerned with the fundamental physical chemistry of polymers in liquid solutions. Topics to be addressed include polymerization kinetics and chain structure, molecular weight distributions and determination, polymer solution thermodynamics and transport phenomena, and solution phase transitions. The study of polymeric solids is the focus of 1029-503 Polymer Chemistry: Properties of Bulk Materials. (1029-301, 1014-442) Class 4, Credit 4 ( S-X*)

4.00 Credits
This course is designed to give the student with a chemistry or materials science background a thorough grounding in the main concepts that describe bulk polymer structure, behavior and properties. The course follows a synthetic path; the structure property relationships for polymeric materials are built up from a microscopic to a macroscopic level. One of the most important lessons of the course is that polymers are almost never in a thermodynamically stable state. Consequently, the behavior of polymers and the properties they display are time dependent and vary with the thermo-mechanical history of the materials. (1029-501, 502) Class 4, Credit 4 ( F-X*)

6.00 Credits
This course introduces, and gives the student experience with, analytical techniques commonly employed to characterize high polymers. To accomplish this, the course is divided into fi ve sections, each highlighting a particular characteristic of polymeric materials: 1) molecular weight distributions; 2) spectroscopic analysis of chemical structure; 3) thermal stability; 4) morphology and phase transitions, and 5) mechanical properties. The experiments, each requiring eight lab hours to complete, are designed to give students exposure to laboratory techniques not generally covered in undergraduate science/engineering curriculum. Although the documentation of experimental results is important, and will be evaluated, the main purpose is to give the student hands-on experience, hopefully piquing his/her interest in and enthusiasm for the fi eld. (1008-319, 1029-301) Lab 6, Credit 2 ( offered alternate years) ( S)

6.00 Credits
Students will carry out about eight experiments. They will conduct in about half of those experiments step-growth polymerizations and in the other half chain-addition polymerizations. Among the polymers produced will be Nylon 6-10, Nylon 11, polystyrene, high-density polyethylene, linear low density polyethylene, copolymer of styrene and methyl methacrylate and polyurethane. The most specifi c types of polymerizations and reactions introduced will be cross-linking polymer, interfacial and bulk step-growth polymerizations, cyclopolymerization, radical, ionic, and coordinative chain polymerizations. Instructors may add or delete polymer-related experiments of their choice. Experiments also include basic characterization of products by at least one method. (1013-437) Lab 6, Credit 2 ( offered alternate years)( F)
-
3.00 Credits
Course is designed to provide students an opportunity to learn the basic anatomy, physiology, pathophysiology and terminology of the heart. Standard views, image, orientation, ultrasound appearance and measurements will be stressed. Students will be required to dissect and label all sections of the human heart. Students are guided in the learning process by lecture and selfpaced laboratory experience. (First year in the ultrasound program or permission of instructor) Class 3, Credit 3 (F)
-
2.00 Credits
Course is designed to provide students with the opportunity to learn cardiac imaging procedures, sectional anatomy and patient positions. Standard views, image orientation, ultrasound appearance and measurements will be stressed. (First year in the echocardiography program or permission of instructor) Class 2, Credit 2 (F)
-
3.00 Credits
Principles of ultrasound physics are directly applied to the use of ultrasound instrumentation in medical imaging. Transducers, signal production, memory systems, data display, manipulation of controls, and artifacts are discussed. Considered as a pivotal course in which the student learns to integrate previous knowledge of anatomy with ultrasound physics and instrumentation. Considered as a prerequisite course for Ultrasound Instrumentation II (1030-410). Emphasis is on the creation of high-quality images on laboratory ultrasound equipment. (Third year in the ultrasound program or permission of instructor) Class 4, Credit 4 (W)
-
4.00 Credits
This course is a continuation of Ultrasound Instrumentation I (1030-409). It provides a foundation of the basic physical principles of ultrasound and the fundamentals of fl uid dynamics, Doppler physics including color, power, and spectral Doppler, quality control, Doppler artifacts, and biological effects. Considered as a pivotal course in which the student learns to integrate previous knowledge of anatomy, ultrasound physics and instrumentation with Doppler skills and techniques. Development of scanning techniques, use of instrument controls, and production of high quality diagnostic images utilizing laboratory equipment are stressed. (Third year in the ultrasound program or permission of instructor) Class 4, Credit 4 (S)
