24 courses with the subject CHE, 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.

A continuation of CHE 220. Multi-step reactions and synthesis will be discussed. Three hours of lecture per week. Prerequisite: CHE 220; corequisite: CHE 223. (Spring) 188 2024-2025 Academic Catalog NDERGRADUATE COURSE DESCRIPTIONS
The laboratory consists multi-step synthesis, isolation, and identification techniques using infrared and nuclear magnetic spectroscopy. One 3-hour laboratory per week.
Designed to aid students in the application process to professional schools (dental, medical, optometry, physical therapy, pharmacy, veterinary), including the selection, application, and interview processes. One hour of lecture per week. Prerequisite: Permission of instructor. Also listed as BIO 280. (Spring)
Gravimetric and volumetric determinations, stoichiometry of analytical chemistry and separations. Three hours of lecture per week. Prerequisite: CHE 220, CHE 222;
Laboratory study of quantitative analysis. One 4-hours of laboratory per week.
Consideration is given to instrumental design, theory and applications to chemical problems in potentiometric, electrogravimetric, coulometric, polarographic, and amperometric methods and optical and atomic spectroscopy and chromatographic separations. Three hours of lecture per week. Prerequisite: CHE 330; prerequisite/ corequisite MAT 182; corequisite: CHE 333. (Spring 2024 and alternate years thereafter)
Laboratory study of instrumental analysis. One 3-hour laboratory per week.
This course is designed to provide an advanced approach to the properties of inorganic chemical systems beyond the quintessential biological species (C, H, O, etc.) including studies of chemical bonding theories, molecular structure, solid state structures, and molecular symmetries. Three hours of lecture per week. Prerequisites:
A study of fundamental biological processes in the context of chemical principles. Topics include: the foundations of biochemistry; structure and catalysis of water, amino acids, and peptides; the structure of proteins; functions of proteins, enzymes; carbohydrates; lipids; and nucleic acids.
