CHEM GR

13 courses with the subject CHEM GR, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.

CHEM GR6168MATERIALS CHEMISTRY IIA2.50

Prerequisites: CHEM UN2443 CHEM C3443 (or equivalent). Prerequisites: CHEM UN2443 , or the equivalent. This is an introductory course to the emerging field macromolecular materials chemistry. The general topics will be based on the chemistry, self-assembly, and performance of block copolymers and conjugated polymers. Particular emphasis will be devoted to the demands required to drive materials from scientific curiosity to commercialization. At the fundamental level, the course will cover topics on polymerization techniques, electronic structure of organic semiconductors, characterization strategies, nanostructures and self-assembly

CHEM GR8120Polymers in Nanotechnology2.5

Polymeric materials have long been ubiquitous items and played important roles in revolutionizing the way we live. Due to the advent of modern polymerization fabrication strategies, polymers are rapidly gaining interest for the development of next generation devices and medical treatment. This course will focus on the chemistry polymers and their use as nanostructured materials created by self-assembly and top-down fabrication techniques. Specifically, the class will be divided into two sections describing the uses of organic nanostructures on a) surfaces and b) as particles. Patterned surfaces will be described in terms of photo-, imprint-, and block copolymer lithography. The preparation of nanoparticles through polymer synthesis, dendrimers, and mechanical manipulation will be the second part.

CHEM GR8349Research Ethics & Philosophy2.5

This lecture course aims to address philosophical and ethical questions in scientific research. What are the most important traits of successful scientists whose discoveries have greatly benefited humanity (and led to Nobel Prizes)? What distinguishes great science from mediocre or pathological "science"? What are the ethical standards of scientific research? How do we identify scientific misconduct or fraud? Why are ethical standards so critical to the integrity of the research enterprise? The course requires extensive participation of students in the form of discussions and debates. Grades will be based on participation, writing assignments, and one oral presentation.
