Interdisciplinary (99) Chemistry (12)This project is implementing the use of atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS) in the chemistry and environmental science curricula. Recent internal and external assessments of the chemistry program as well as the recent implementation of the environmental sciences program have demonstrated a gap in curricula as a result of students not using AAS in the laboratory. AAS has been established as a fundamental technique in the quantitative determination of trace metals. In order to implement AAS into six courses of the chemistry curriculum and one course of the environmental science curriculum, a number of experiments are being adapted and modified from the educational literature. Students are using AAS in general chemistry laboratory, environmental analytical chemistry laboratory, and then the intermediate laboratory I/II and advanced laboratory I/II sequence. In the ES program, AAS is used in the advanced environmental science laboratory. In addition, seniors are able to use AAS in their senior research projects that are required for graduation. Students learn the theoretical basis of AAS and also have extensive hands-on experience. This ensures proper training in AAS for chemistry and environmental science majors who go on to graduate school or are employed in the private or public sector.

跨学科（99）化学（12）本项目正在化学和环境科学课程中实施原子吸收光谱法的使用。最近的内部和外部评估的化学计划，以及环境科学计划的最近实施表明，由于学生不使用原子吸收光谱在实验室课程的差距。原子吸收分光光度法已被确立为定量测定痕量金属的基本技术。为了将AAS实施到化学课程的六门课程和环境科学课程的一门课程中，正在从教育文献中改编和修改一些实验。学生在普通化学实验室，环境分析化学实验室，然后是中级实验室I/II和高级实验室I/II序列中使用AAS。在ES计划中，AAS用于先进的环境科学实验室。此外，大四学生能够在毕业所需的高级研究项目中使用AAS。学生学习AAS的理论基础，也有丰富的实践经验。这确保了对化学和环境科学专业的学生进行适当的AAS培训，这些学生将继续就读研究生院或受雇于私营或公共部门。
