An Infrared Spectrophotometer/Data Collecting Station for Undergraduate Chemistry

该项目旨在通过为学生提供红外光谱仪-数据站组合来提升谢泼德学院化学专业和未成年人的教育水平。计算机控制的设备将供有机化学和计算机化学课程的学生使用，并将极大地扩大本科生进行研究的机会。此外，该项目将提供一个在当地高中引入红外光谱(IR)的机会，并向地区高中教师教授IR理论和操作。

This project aims to upgrade the education of chemistry majors and minors at Shepherd College by providing an infrared spectrophotometer- data station combination for student use. The computer-controlled equipment will be utilized by students in Organic Chemistry and in a Computers in Chemistry course, and will expand substantially the opportunities for undergraduates to conduct research. In addition, the project will provide an opportunity to introduce infrared spectroscopy (IR) in local high schools and to teach IR theory and operation to area high school teachers.
