A more advanced course which explores the properties of the transition elements. Topics will include the Schrodinger wave equation, states of atoms, crystal field/molecular orbital theory, coordination chemistry, and organometallic chemistry. Prerequisite: CHE-235 with grade of "C" or better.

An introduction to the theory and methods applied in the field of analytical chemistry. Focuses on the development of quantitative description of chemical equilibria in both homogeneous and heterogeneous systems. Emphasis includes acid-base and complexometric titrations, separations, electrochemical probes, and statistical analysis of data. Prerequisites: CHE-126 with grade of "C" or better. Co-requisite: CHE-350L.

Introduces and develops laboratory skills in qualitative and quantitative analyses including acid-base and complexometric titrations as well as gravimetric and volumetric analyses. Emphasis will also include statistically analyzed data and professional communication of findings. Co-requisite: CHE-350.

Detailed study of analytical instrumentation, including electrochemical, spectroscopic, and mass spectroscopic chemical analysis as well as analytical separations, including various types of chromatography. Prerequisite: CHE-350 and CHE-350L or equivalent with a "C" or better. Co-requisite: CHE-370L

In-depth study of instrument operation, application, and calibration. Focus will be a hands-on experience operating spectrometers, electrochemical analyzers, and chromatography equipment. Prerequisite: CHE-350 and CHE-350L or equivalent with a "C" or better. Co-requisite: CHE-370.

Work with a faculty mentor and in cooperation with an Honors College advisor, producing a research thesis or creative project.
