CHEM 1400 Chemistry and Society

This course is designed to meet the requirements for a laboratory science course for students who do not plan to major in Biology or Chemistry. The course will not meet requirements for Nursing or other Health Careers students. In addition to providing an introduction to some basic concepts of Chemistry, the course is designed to acquaint students with the impact of current science and technology on their everyday lives by examining the chemistry of life, food additives, drug, detergents, cosmetics, paints, space, and others. The course will not count toward a Chemistry major or minor. Laboratory fee. Fall, Spring.

CHEM 1401 Introduction to Forensic Science

This is an introductory, applied course for students who are not planning to major in Biology or Chemistry, but who are interested in the technical methods used to enforce our criminal and civil laws. Students with interests in the scientific aspects of the Criminal Justice field or those who desire additional knowledge of the capabilities of a typical crime laboratory extending beyond that of magazine articles or televised programs, will benefit from the material. Real life examples of the principles and techniques of physical and natural science as practiced and applied to the analysis of crime scenes are to be discussed. Laboratory fee. Fall, Spring.

CHEM 1402 Environmental Science

Environmental Science is a one-semester course designed for students who are not planning to major in Biology or Chemistry. Using the global approach, the course will focus on environmental principles, problems, and potential solutions. A chemical emphasis will be given where applicable to such topics as materials, waste management and waste treatment, energy resources, population increases, water and water pollution, air and air pollution, using and misusing land, and environmental legislation. The laboratory activities will reinforce concepts covered in the classroom with experiments and demonstrations. (same as ENVR 1402) Laboratory fee. Fall, Spring.
