A computer-controlled gas chromatograph/mass spectrometer (GC-MS) system with an autosampler and searchable library of mass spectral data is being used to provide a powerful tool for sample separations and analysis to support open-ended laboratory projects throughout the curriculum, including student/faculty research activities. The department is committed to the inclusion of open-ended, hands-on laboratory projects at all curricular levels, culminating in a series of advanced courses in which students participate extensively in experimental design, instrument maintenance, methods development and even grant-writing. Students have access to the GC-MS instrument from the earliest stages of their college careers. Upper-level students develop and refine methods to be used for open-ended laboratory experiments in the freshman and sophomore courses. Additionally, junior and senior level students carry out advanced open-ended projects of their own design that utilize and explore the full capabilities of a hyphenated separations-analysis instrument. The institution has committed to funds for student travel to disseminate results from the project.

计算机控制的气相色谱仪/质谱仪(GC-MS)系统带有自动取样器和可搜索的质谱库，用于为样品分离和分析提供强大的工具，以支持整个课程的开放式实验室项目，包括学生/教员的研究活动。该部门致力于在所有课程级别纳入开放式、动手的实验室项目，最终形成一系列高级课程，学生在这些课程中广泛参与实验设计、仪器维护、方法开发，甚至是拨款申请。学生从大学生涯的最早阶段就可以接触到GC-MS仪器。高年级学生开发和改进方法，用于一年级和二年级课程的开放式实验室实验。此外，低年级和高年级的学生要完成他们自己设计的高级开放式项目，利用和探索连字符分离分析仪器的全部能力。该机构承诺为学生旅行提供资金，以传播该项目的成果。
