Minimum Credits: 2
Maximum Credits: 2
The two-credit Honors Organic Chemistry Laboratory Course serves as an alternative to the Organic Chemistry Laboratory Course (CHEM 0345). This research-based laboratory course has been developed as part of an integrated 2-semester sequence in collaboration with the Department of Biological Sciences. One major goal of this course is to offer undergraduate students an opportunity to perform authentic scientific research in the laboratory course. This collaborative course sequence engages the students in learning approaches towards antibiotic discovery in order to address the world’s current antibiotic crisis. Students start out in the biology course by isolating bacterial strains that display antibiotic activity. This biology course is followed up with the organic chemistry lab course that affords the students the opportunity to develop strategies for antibiotic isolation and purification using chemical separation techniques, and to characterize these unknown antibiotics through spectroscopic techniques commonly used in organic chemistry. Students are encouraged to take the biology Small World course (BIOSC 0067) prior to this Honors Organic Chemistry Lab course. However, the Small World course is not required for students to enroll in this course.
