CHEM 350 - Advanced Laboratory Techniques

This course builds upon prior knowledge and skills in other core laboratory courses to utilize existing instrumentation or techniques in analysis and identification of chemical species and processes. In addition to in depth study of one or more of these techniques, course work will also include the reading of primary literature and laboratory work. Specific titles may include:

Separations - This course will focus on advanced analytical separation techniques. The theory of separations, alongside practical instrumentation (including gas and liquid chromatography) and experimental design.

Advanced NMR - Modern nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) techniques will be studied in both theory and practical use. This will include multi-dimensional proton NMR, as well as heteroatom (such as carbon-13, fluorine-19, and/or other nuclei) spectroscopic methods.
