Chemistry (12) Biological Sciences (61) The primary objectives for this project are to enhance the laboratory experience of students in ultraviolet and visible spectroscopy with the introduction of a new protein chemistry course, and to expand the laboratory experiences involving UV/visible spectroscopy in chemistry, biology, and molecular science courses. In addition, we are providing access of UV/visible spectroscopy to the wider educational community in Cedar Rapids through existing outreach programs. We are basing these changes on the addition of eight, single wavelength UV/visible spectrophotometers and three scanning UV/visible instruments. Students have the opportunity to use more sophisticated techniques with the inclusion of more research based laboratory experiences that begin in introductory laboratories and continue through advanced courses. The new protein chemistry course in being adapted from one developed by John Markwell at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, while changes in the other courses include the adaptation of a wide range of experiments from the research or educational literature.

生物科学（61）本项目的主要目标是通过引入一门新的蛋白质化学课程来增强学生在紫外和可见光谱学方面的实验室经验，并扩大化学、生物学和分子科学课程中涉及紫外/可见光谱学的实验室经验。此外，我们正在通过现有的外展计划，为锡达拉皮兹更广泛的教育界提供紫外线/可见光谱学的访问。这些变化是基于增加了8台单波长紫外/可见分光光度计和3台扫描紫外/可见仪器。学生有机会使用更复杂的技术，包括更多的基于实验室研究的经验，从入门实验室开始，继续通过高级课程。新的蛋白质化学课程改编自内布拉斯加大学林肯分校的John Markwell开发的课程，而其他课程的变化包括从研究或教育文献中改编广泛的实验。
