Uraian Tempat

The Chemistry Department is to provide excellent chemistry and biochemistry programs as well as offerings in the other physical sciences within a liberal arts tradition in an atmosphere of individual attention and personal concern. Chemistry is a “central science” that overlaps and permeates the other natural sciences. Those who investigate chemical principles have the basis to better understand the world about them and how to function in that world. They build this foundation in a context that helps students become scientifically responsible citizens with the knowledge, skills, attitudes and values that will allow them to be successful in scientific and non-scientific professions. The department has six well-equipped student laboratories. One is devoted to computer based experimentation using interface devices which allow collection and analysis of data for pH measurements, light intensity and temperature changes, or to do molecular modeling using a professional grade modeling program, Hyper Chem for visualization and property determination. Small instrumentation such as electronic balances, spectrophotometers, gel-electrophoresis, melting point determinations are routinely available in the labs. Three instrument laboratories contain major instrumentation for spectroscopy, gas chromatography, high pressure liquid chromatography, and infrared analysis and nuclear magnetic resonance experiments. A special chromatography refrigerator allows students to perform biochemistry experiments at controlled low temperatures by placing small instruments and apparatus within the chamber.
