CHEMISTRY (CHM)

CHM120

Chemical Concepts

A survey course that includes the fundamentals of chemical composition, chemical calculations, solutions, states of matter, the periodic table, acids, bases and pH, radioactivity and nuclear processes, and a brief overview of organic and biochemistry...

CHM121

General Chemistry I

This course develops an analytical approach to solving chemical problems. The student is provided with principles that relate chemical structure, energy and reactivity and is introduced to the following topics: composition and properties of matter, n...

CHM123

General Chemistry II

This course is the second semester of a two semester sequence intended for chemistry majors, and students seeking careers in pre-professional health-related fields. It continues some of the topics presented in CHM 121, General Chemistry I, in more de...

CHM125

Elementary Organic Chemistry

This course is a survey of organic chemistry. The course is designed for students who need a background in organic chemistry, but do not plan to make chemistry their career. This course is usually taken by students in agriculture, nursing, and allied...

CHM140

Chemistry for a Changing World

This course emphasizes some basic principles of chemistry and their relationship to the modern world. This course will foster an interest in science by preparing students to make effective decisions by developing thinking skills that can be applied t...

Chem for a Changing World-LAB

This course emphasizes basic principles of chemistry and their relationship to the modern world. This course will foster an interest in science by preparing students to make effective decisions by developing thinking skills that can be applied to cha...

CHM161

Chemistry Laboratory

This laboratory course is intended for students who have taken a lecture component of a general chemistry course at another institution and are seeking credit for CHM 121 – General Chemistry I so as to meet a prerequisite for CHM 123 – General Chemis...

CHM221

Analytical Chemistry

Introduces the fundamental concepts associated with gravimetric, volumetric, and instrumental methods of analysis. Lab time is divided evenly between traditional quantitative analysis and modern instrumental analysis.

CHM222

Organic Chemistry I

This course introduces students to theoretical concepts and experimental techniques related to the chemistry of carbon compounds. Topics will include nomenclature, acid-base systems, alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, alkyl halides, alcohols, ethers, stereoc...

CHM223

Organic Chemistry II

This course presents the fundamental principles of organic chemistry with an emphasis on the syntheses, reactions, mechanisms, structures and identification of organic compounds. Topics include nomenclature, instrumental analyses, aromatic compounds,...

CHM225

Biochemistry

This is a non-laboratory course for students interested in science majors, pre-professional health majors (i.e., pharmacy), nutrition, physician’s assistant programs as well as other allied-health disciplines. The course examines the strong relations...

CHM299

Special Topics in Chemistry

This course addresses the in-depth study of special topics in chemistry that do not have specific courses in the catalog. Course content will vary depending on the topic being studied. Topics may include environmental issues, impact of chemistry in...
