Enhancement of the Undergraduate Polymer Chemistry Curriculum

化学系正在装备一个聚合物研究实验室，将机械测试、表面分析和初级加工技术引入课程。这些新仪器增加了本科生使用最先进仪器的动手体验，并增加了与聚合物相关的实验的多样性。选择分析和物理化学实验室的化学专业学生也受益于利用这些设备进行的聚合物实验。

The Chemistry Department is equipping a laboratory for polymer studies to introduce mechanical testing, surface analysis and elementary processing techniques into the curriculum. The new instruments are increasing the hands-on experience by undergraduate students with state-of-the-art instrumentation and increasing the diversity of the polymer-related experiments performed. Chemistry majors taking analytical and physical chemistry laboratories are also benefitting from exposure to experiments involving polymers which utilize the equipment.
