Establishment of a State-Of-The-Art Undergraduate Polymer Science and Engineering Teaching Laboratory

一个高度创新的聚合物实验室类创建伴随着越来越受欢迎的跨学科聚合物科学讲座类。 经过仔细考虑和选择的最先进的仪器设备是在学生面临现实工业情况的前提下，与“及时”学习结合使用的，因此必须在有限的时间内解决特定的技术问题。 五个独立的实验强调和加强在讲座中提出的材料进行。 实验室课程由化学工程的一名教师和化学系的一名教师组成;学生和这些教师在亲密的实验室环境中的大量接触时间是课程不可或缺的一部分。 *

A highly innovative polymer laboratory class is created to accompany an increasingly popular interdisciplinary polymer science lecture class. Carefully considered and selected state-of-the-art instrumentation is acquired and used in conjunction with "just in time" learning under the premise of the student's being faced with realistic industrial situations whereby specific technical questions have to be addressed within a limited period of time. Five separate experiments emphasizing and reinforcing the material presented in lecture are performed. The laboratory class is team taught by one faculty member from Chemical Engineering and one from the Chemistry Department; heavy contact hours between the student and these faculty in an intimate laboratory setting are an indispensable part of the course. *
