CHEM 2612 PRINCIPLES OF LABORATORY SAFETY Introduction to the principles of laboratory safety focused on recognizing, assessing and minimizing the risks of hazards, and preparing for emergencies. Topics include the planning of experiments and evaluations of their physical and chemical hazards, managing chemicals and waste, safe use of laboratory and personal protective equipment, emergency response to chemical spills and fires, hazard communication, safety ethics and government regulation. In addition to Chemistry, this course may be useful to Physics, Biology, Engineering Technology, Secondary Education, Health Sciences and other majors who may be working in a laboratory setting. Prerequisite: prior or concurrent enrollment in An introduction to organic chemistry. Emphasis is placed on structure and reaction mechanisms. The chemistry of hydrocarbons is developed in detail. Prerequisites: CHEM 1303 and CHEM 1352. F, S, SU CHEM 3015 ORGANIC CHEMISTRY I Same as 3013 except that theoretical principles are presented in more detail. The accompanying laboratory meets six hours each week and the instruction in modern instrumental techniques is more rigorous than in CHEM 3111. The course is designed for students majoring in chemistry and other science areas. Prerequisites: CHEM 1303 and CHEM 1352. F CHEM 3111 ORGANIC CHEMISTRY I LABORATORY Methods of separation of mixtures and determination of the physical and structural properties of compounds are emphasized. Spectroscopy and chromatography are introduced with some applications. Prerequisites: CHEM 1303 and CHEM 1352. Corequisite: CHEM 3013. F, S, SU CHEM 3124 QUANTITATIVE ANALYSIS CHEM 1303 or permission of instructor. S CHEM 3013 ORGANIC CHEMISTRY I An introductory course in analytical chemistry which includes sampling, separations (precipitation, solvent extraction, ion exchange, chromatography); and determinations (by titrimetry, gravimetry, colorimetry, and potentiometry techniques). Prerequisites: CHEM 1303 and CHEM 1352. F CHEM 3211 INORGANIC CHEMISTRY LAB The lab meets three hours each week and focuses on the synthesis (including inert atmosphere and vacuum line techniques), purification (including chromatography and crystallization techniques), and characterization (including magnetic susceptibility, conductivity, UV-Vis, IR, NMR, X-ray diffraction, and mass spectra) of inorganic ligands and complexes. Corequisite: CHEM 3233. Prerequisites: CHEM 3111 or CHEM 3015. FO CHEM 3233 INORGANIC CHEMISTRY A study of advanced principles of inorganic chemistry. Major topics include: 1) Structure and bonding theories; 2) Transition metal coordination chemistry, and 3) Organometallic chemistry. Prerequisite: CHEM 3013 & CHEM 3111 or CHEM 3015. FO CHEM 3244 ENVIRONMENTAL CHEMISTRY Lecture, lab, and field course designed to provide broad based general knowledge of environmental chemistry, biology, and geology, especially including chemistry dealing with origins, transport, reactions, effects, and fates of chemical species in the water, air, soil and living environments. Laboratory will include a field component incorporating sampling techniques and methods of analysis. Prerequisite: CHEM 3013 or

Prerequisites: CHEM 1303, PHY 1044 or PHY 2145 (preferred), and MATH 2823 or concurrent or prior enrollment in MATH 2834, or permission of instructor. FE CHEM 3901 SEMINAR IN CHEMISTRY I (CAPSTONE) Course focus is on skills required for a successful professional career post graduation. Non-academic topics will include: selection and application to graduate programs, job search strategies, professional resume preparation and interview skills. Development of pertinent professional attitudes and professional and scientific ethics will be discussed. The second half of the course will cover methods of chemical literature searching and how to summarize the primary research publications in preparation for Seminar in Chemistry II. Prerequisites: Junior/Senior standing or permission of chair. F CHEM 4001-4 CHEMISTRY RESEARCH Individual students may arrange for a variety of laboratory research studies. Completion of a verbal presentation and written paper is required for credit in this course. At least 2 credit hours of this course is required for graduation with a Chemistry BS or BS Professional degree. Credit one to four hours F, S, SU CHEM 4011-4 SEMINAR IN CHEMISTRY (TOPIC) Credit is assigned for the completion of directed reading programs, seminars and similar activities. Credit one to four semester hours. Prerequisite: Departmental approval. D CHEM 4021 ORGANIC CHEMISTRY II LABORATORY Preparation and identification of organic compounds are emphasized. Spectroscopic and chromatographic techniques are utilized. Prerequisites: CHEM 3013 and CHEM 3111 or CHEM 3015. Corequisite: CHEM 4113. F, S, SU CHEM 4113 ORGANIC CHEMISTRY II A continuation of CHEM 3013. Preparations, properties, and reactions of organic functional groups with emphasis on biomolecules. Prerequisites: CHEM 3013 and CHEM 3111. F, S, SU CHEM 4115 ORGANIC CHEMISTRY II A continuation of CHEM 3015. Preparation, properties, and reactions of organic functional groups.
