AUCHE 110 - General Chemistry I

3 units (fi 6)(EITHER, 3-0-3)

A general introduction to chemistry. Topics include atomic structure, periodic trends, bonding, molecular shapes and Lewis structures, states of matter and intermolecular forces, functional groups and IR spectroscopy. Prerequisites: Chemistry 30 and Mathematics 30-1.

AUIDS 101 - First Year Seminar

3 units (fi 6)(EITHER, 3-0-0)

Selected topics that highlight the interdisciplinary nature of the Liberal Arts and Sciences. This seminar-style class is the first course in Augustana's Core. The focus and content of each course are determined by faculty interests, and vary from year to year.

AUSCI 425 - Senior Mentorship Experience

3 units (fi 6)(EITHER, 0-3S-0)

This course will involve weekly laboratory instruction for general chemistry (AUSCI 125 and AUCHE 213) labs. Students enrolled in the course will be responsible for supervision of students during the labs as well as mentoring of junior students who will be assisting in the lab. Students will be expected to attend weekly technical meetings on lab logistics, safety and procedures. In addition, students will attend weekly seminars on teaching practice, communication and student mentorship experience. An important component of this course will be reflective assignments about the teaching experience. Prerequisites: 3rd or 4th year standing. Consent of the instructors based on successful completion of the selection process.

AUCHE 220 - Analysis I

3 units (fi 6)(EITHER, 3-0-0)

Theoretical and practical aspects of chemical analysis. Topics include titrimetry, separations, acid-base equilibria, chromatography, and spectrophotometry. Examples emphasize the utility and limitations of analytical techniques. Prerequisite: AUCHE 112 or AUCHE 212 (2022) or AUCHE 214. Recommended corequisite: AUMAT 110 or 116.

AUCHE 221 - Analysis I Lab

3 units (fi 6)(EITHER, 1-0-3)

This is a lab course that introduces students to the principles and techniques of analytical chemistry. Laboratory experiments will include analysis techniques that involve titrimetry, electrochemistry, spectrophotometry and chromatography. Prerequisites: AUCHE 112 or AUCHE 213. Corequisites: Recommended AUCHE 220.

AUSCI 405 - Chemical and Physical Sciences Capstone

3 units (fi 6)(EITHER, 3-0-0)

This course will integrate learning across the different streams in the Chemical and Physical Sciences major. Students will spend time examining some significant historical problems such as the history of the development of the atomic model, history of the development of the periodic table, diversity and ethical questions and problems in the natural sciences. The course will culminate with an interdisciplinary senior research project. Prerequisites: 4th year standing and 6 units of 300- or 400-level AUBIO, AUCHE or AUPHY.
