University Catalog

General, analytical, and synthetic chemistry concepts will be reinforced through problem- and inquiry-based laboratory activities. Research and scientific methods will be reinforced through the investigation of student-selected research problems and modules on scientific communication. Increased exposure to state-of-the-art analytical techniques and instruments, as well as synthetic methods will culminate in the preparation of a proposal related to the synthesis of new materials and the analysis of their structure and function. If a student withdraws from CHEM 1182, the student must also withdraw from CHEM 1342. Prerequisite: (CHEM 1341 with a grade of C or better) and (CHEM 1181 with a grade of C or better) and (concurrent enrollment in CHEM 1342).
