Acquisition of Chemical Instrumentation for the Development of the Biochemistry/Molecular Biology Curriculum

自然科学与数学系正在采购一台紫外/可见分光光度计、一台荧光分光光度计和一台含两个转子的冷冻离心机。这些设备显著提高了本系教授理解和实践现代化学和分子生物学所必需的方法学、定量和数据分析能力的能力。除了提供机会在受影响的课程中进行更复杂和相关的实验室练习外，它还提供机会建立重要的教师和学生研究计划和项目。三一学院以女性学生为主，提供几个自然科学学科的学士学位，并提供大约10%的佛蒙特州中小学教师进入该专业。

The Department of Natural Science and Mathematics is purchasing a UV/VIS spectrophotometer, a fluorescence spectrophotometer, and a refrigerated centrifuge including two rotors. This equipment markedly improves the department's capacity to teach the methodological, quantitative, and data analysis capabilities necessary to understand and practice modern chemistry and molecular biology. In addition to providing the opportunity to pursue more sophisticated and relevant laboratory exercises in the affected courses, it also offers the opportunity to establish significant faculty and student research programs and projects. Serving a predominantly female student population, Trinity College offers baccalaureate majors in several natural science disciplines, and provides approximately 10% of the elementary and secondary school teachers entering the profession in the State of Vermont.
