5 Units

INTRODUCTORY CHEMISTRY (GL)

CHEM 102

An introduction to the general concepts of chemistry including matter and energy, atomic and molecular structure, bonding, reactions and stoichiometry, gas laws, changes of state, thermochemistry, acid-base theory, solutions, colloids, kinetics, equilibria and electrochemistry.


5 Units

INTRODUCTORY CHEMISTRY (GL)

CHEM 104

A continuation of CHEM 102.


3 Units

CHEMISTRY FOR OCCUPATIONAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL APPLICATIONS

CHEM 112

This course will explore the bonding, structure, properties and reactivity of the main classes of organic compounds focusing on acid/base, redox, and radical reactions. The safety concerns of these reactions will be discussed and predicted by using chemical information found in online and text sources.


3 Units

ORGANIC CHEMISTRY

CHEM 251

Introductory chemistry of the compounds of carbon, their structures and reactions. Taken primarily by chemistry majors and pre-professional students. The foundation for understanding organic reactions is established with an emphasis on bonding, functional groups, three dimensional structure of organic molecules, relationship between structure and reactivity, kinetics, and reaction mechanisms. Three hours of lecture per week.


2 Units

ORGANIC CHEMISTRY LABORATORY

CHEM 261

Basic organic manipulative techniques and simpler syntheses are considered. Spectroscopic topics are introduced. Generally taken concurrently with CHEM 251. Two three-hour laboratories per week.


1-2 Units

SUPERVISED TEACHING AIDE

CHEM 492

This course provides students with teaching experience in a college-level chemistry laboratory course they have previously taken. It includes instruction on how to best operate as a teaching aide and in depth instruction on the experiments and instrumentation used in that chemistry course.


1-3 Units

CHEMISTRY INTERNSHIP

CHEM 493

Variable Topics


1-3 Units

INDEPENDENT STUDY IN CHEMISTRY

CHEM 498

Study of a selected topic or topics under the direction of a faculty member. Repeatable for a maximum of 6 credits in major/degree. Credits in this course may not be used to fulfill minor requirements in Chemistry.


0.5-3 Units

INDEPENDENT STUDY - UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH

CHEM 498R

Study of a selected topic or topics under the direction of a faculty member. Repeatable for a maximum of 6 credits in major/degree. Credits in this course may not be used to fulfill minor requirements in Chemistry.
