Prof. Urbach's Courses, Spring 2008
| CHEM 4347, Advanced Interdisciplinary Topics |
| This semester the topic is supramolecular chemistry, which draws heavily on concepts from physical, organic, inorganic, and biochemistry. The first portion of the course will cover theoretical and experimental methods in the study of intermolecular interactions. The remainder of the course will be driven by presentations of current primary literature in the field. This course fulfils the Senior Experience requirement. |
| Meets TR 9:55-11:10 in MEB 206 |
| Prerequisite: CHEM 3334 |
| CHEM 2119, Laboratory Methods in Organic Chemistry |
| This course focuses on techniques essential to the preparation and analysis of organic compounds. Chromatographic separations and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and infrared (IR) spectroscopic analyses are introduced. |
| Meets T 12:45-3:25 p.m. in MEB 105 |
| Prerequisite: CHEM 1118 or equivalent |
| Corequisite: CHEM 2319 |
| CHEM 2180, Biomolecular Research Methods |
| This course focuses on investigative skills for interdisciplinary research in the biological and chemical sciences. Modern techniques in fluorescence and circular dichroism spectroscopy, microcalorimetry, and mass spectrometry will be used to address problems in protein structure and protein-drug interactions. |
| Meets R 12:45-3:25 p.m. in MEB 323 and MEB 125 |
| Prerequisite: BIOL 1312, 1212, CHEM 2319, 2119, and consent of instructor. |
