Expansion of Electrochemistry in the Undergraduate Curriculum

通过在课程中整合伏安法和库仑法的使用，本科化学课程正在得到加强。正在修订七门课程(有机化学、定性有机分析、物理化学实验室、生物化学、定量分析、仪器分析和独立研究)，为学生提供在实验室项目和独立研究中通过实践经验将电化学原理付诸实践的机会。伏安法和库仑法的使用是对目前化学课程的补充，在这门课程中，学生们使用紫外线-可见和红外光谱仪、核磁共振光谱仪、气体和液体色谱。因此，将电化学整合到课程中是为了确保学生在仪器实践中得到更完整的准备。受赠人匹配来自非联邦来源的奖励。

The undergraduate chemistry program is being strengthened by the integration of the use of voltammetry and coulometry in the curriculum. Seven courses (Organic Chemistry, Qualitative Organic Analysis, Physical Chemistry Lab, Biochemistry, Quantitative Analysis, Instrumental Analysis and Independent Research) are being revised to provide students with the opportunity to put electrochemical principles into practice through "hands-on" experience, both in lab projects and in independent research. The use of voltammetry and coulometry is complementing the current chemistry program in which students are using ultraviolet-visible and infrared spectrophotometers, NMR spectrometers, gas and liquid chromatography. Thus, integration of electrochemistry in the curriculum is assuring that students receive a more complete preparation in instrumental practice.
