28 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.
Open to qualified students by permission of the department. Supervised on-campus or off-campus summer research experience developed in consultation with the department. POI, requires permission of instructor.
Foundations of Chemistry is designed to develop fundamental mathematical skills and introduce foundational chemistry concepts underlying this central science. The use of mathematics is stressed in the context of chemical problems involving measurement, atoms, molecules, reactions and solutions. This course prepares students interested in pursuing a science major for the General Chemistry course curriculum. This course does not count toward the chemistry major, minor nor fulfillment of the General Education requirement in the Natural Science. Students who have received credit for CHEM 111 may not enroll in this course.
