1.00 Credits
Spring Semester This course is required for all chemistry majors (preferably in the freshman or sophomore years). The course is primarily an introduction to computer techniques such as molecular modeling and the use of spreadsheets in chemistry. Freshmen and sophomores will be working together and will engage in discussions concerning the latest developments in software for chemists. The course will involve seminars, demonstrations, and hands-on use of computers. 1 class period. 1 credit hour.

3.00 Credits
Fall or Spring Semesters This course is designed to be an issue's oriented chemistry literacy course. Basic science and chemistry concepts are broadly applied to the study of topics that may include the atmosphere, global warming, energy, water, acid rain, nanotechnology, nuclear energy, polymers, and nutrition. An underlying theme is the evaluation of information and risk/benefit choices. The laboratory includes field trips, field studies, and in-lab experiments. Prerequisite: IFL101 2 class periods and 1 three-hour laboratory period (CHM203) 3 credit hours. Satisfies ADR III.

3.00 Credits
Fall Semester Organic Chemistry I focuses on the study of carbon compounds. An integrated study of the nomenclature, properties, stereochemistry, synthesis and reactions of aliphatic compounds including alcohols will be presented. The relationship between structure and reactivity is developed for each class of compounds. Mechanisms are stressed. This course will also cover introductory spectroscopic analysis. Prerequisite: CHM136 with a grade of 2.0 or higher. 3 class periods. 1 laboratory period (CHM235). 4 credit hours. Satisfies ADR III.

3.00 Credits
Spring Semester This course is a continuation of CHM234. Reactions of aromatic, carbonyl and amine compounds will be studied. Additionally, this course covers radical as well as oxidation/reduction reactions. Advanced spectroscopic analysis will be presented. Mechanisms and synthetic strategies will continue to be stressed. Prerequisite: CHM234 with a grade of 2.0 or higher. 3 class periods. 1 three-hour laboratory period (CHM237). 4 credit hours. Satisfies ADR III.
-
3.00 Credits
Fall Semester This analytical course covers classical methods of chemical analysis that are augmented by the use of new titrants and ion selective electrodes. The theory and techniques of gravimetric, volumetric, and potentiometric analysis are discussed. Prerequisites: CHM134-CHM136 with a grade of 2.0 or higher. 2 class periods. 2 three-hour laboratory periods (CHM337). 4 credit hours.
-
3.00 Credits
Spring Semester This course provides an introduction to the theoretical principles and applications of modern instrumental methods of analysis. Topics include spectroscopy, chromatography, elemental analysis, surface analysis, and electrochemical techniques. Prerequisites: CHM134-CHM136. 2 class periods. 2 three-hour laboratory periods (CHM339). 4 credit hours.
