26 courses with the subject CHEM, 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.
Included are semitechnical discussions of plastics, drugs, food additives, detergents, energy sources, air and water pollution, and related chemical phenomena. (Permission of the instructor required for students who have credit for Chem 140 or higher). Lab fee.
which require one course in chemistry, but it may also be selected as an integrative requirement option by students in other programs. This course integrates the basic concepts of inorganic, organic and biological chemistry and establishes the chemical foundations for microbiology, physiology, nutrition and pharmacology. Not open to chemistry majors or students who have credit for CHEM 140. Not an acceptable prerequisite for chemistry courses numbered 200 or higher. (P: MATH 107). Lab fee.
to the principles of chemistry. Topics covered include chemical equilibrium, thermochemistry and introductory thermodynamics, electrochemistry, nuclear chemistry, and the descriptive chemistry of selected main group and transition elements. Lab fee. (P: CHEM 140).

Scientific principles will be introduced by examining the techniques used to evaluate physical evidence such as that left at a crime scene. An integral part of the course will be case studies which will be used to introduce various topics in the field. The course is appropriate for the non-science major provided that they have basic math and science skills. (P: Math 107; sophomore status or above) Lab fee.
Required Chemistry Elective (4 CH) One of the following:
mechanics, thermodynamics and chemical kinetics. Discussion of Elementary wave mechanics; electronic structure of atoms and molecules, including molecular orbital theory and spectroscopic methods of structure determination; laws of thermodynamics applied to physical and chemical equilibria; reaction kinetics, focusing on analyzing mechanistic rate laws. (P; CHEM 160, MATH 182, PHYS 184 and preferably CHEM 210). Lab fee.

are announced prior to pre-registration and may include coordination chemistry, ligand field theory, catalysis, bioinorganic chemistry, organometallic chemistry, Lewis acid-base theory, and others. (P: CHEM 390 and permission of the instructor).
Topics include coordination chemistry of metal ions with functional groups of proteins and nucleic acids, structure and reaction mechanisms of specific metalloenzymes, toxicity and essentiality of metal ions in organisms, mechanisms by which organisms obtain required metal ions from their environment and the use of metal-containing compounds in treating and preventing disease. (P: CHEM 345 or permission of the instructor.)
