Weekly lecture by guest scientist working in chemistry or chemically related field (research, teaching, administration, product development, sales, etc.) to help students identify their own interests as related to chemistry. May include brief reports. The student learning objectives are to (1) Identify the research foci within the department and opportunities for undergraduate research; (2) Acquire skills to write a cover letter and resume; (3) Identify internships, labs, and research opportunities appropriate to their interests; (4) Identify array of career options for chemistry majors.

Chemical periodicity, reaction behavior and structural interrelationships within the framework of a systematic treatment of the main group and transition elements.
