The synthesis of inorganic materials and their characterization using a variety of physical techniques. Topics include solid state and inert atmosphere techniques and compounds relevant to biological systems. Includes a class project culminating in a written document in professional journal format, and an interactive oral presentation. Satisfies the Integrative Experience requirement for BA-Chem and BS-Chem majors.

For second year students. Does not satisfy the B.S. independent research project requirement. Experimental or theoretical study that may involve lab or library work or a combination. Work supervised by faculty sponsor who determines direction of project, nature of reports required, and grade and credit awarded. 3-4 hrs lab work per week per 1 unit is expected. This course cannot substitute for CHEM 388 or CHEM 499Y/T.

This class is focused on computational and mathematical problems in chemistry using modern symbolic computational tools. Using the software platform Mathematica (free to UMass students via site license), we will develop tools for data visualization and manipulation, and statistical methods in chemistry. In addition, we will explore aspects differential equation solving and visualization of solutions. Finally, we will explore elements of linear algebra, linear transformations, and group theory as applied to chemical systems.

Discussion, oral presentations, problem solving, and reading of current literature pertinent to research interests of one or more faculty. For chemistry graduate students doing research.
