An introduction to theoretical models of soft molecular assembly: thermodynamics and kinetics of aggregation, mean-field models of copolymer assembly, molecular models of liquid-crystals and surfactants, a phenomenological approach to liquid-crystalline phases and the effect of thermal fluctuations in soft assemblies.

This course is designed to provide an introduction to Generalizability Theory for advanced graduate students interested in Educational Measurement. The course will include independent readings, lectures, and the completion of a final project that will be submitted to a conference. Topics include both univariate and multivariate designs, and students should have some familiarity with Classical Test Theory. This course requires an ability to work independently between class meeting times.

Continuation of E&C-ENG 415. Design of small electronic system built, refined, tested, and demonstrated. Final prototype shown to meet initial specifications. Final design review. Prerequisite: E&C-ENG 415.

Experimental organic chemistry with emphasis on underlying physical principles. Separation and purification, synthesis, analysis, and identification of organic compounds, including spectroscopy. Microscale work predominates. Emphasis on safe laboratory practices and proper disposal of wastes. Prerequisite or co-requisite: CHEM 262 or 266.

An internship will help you gain invaluable knowledge and skills that can serve as a stepping-stone to your career. You can find an internship locally, in a major city, or abroad. Seeking an internship requires a great deal of initiative on your part - you must both find a site where you can work and connect with a faculty member who will support you in your academic efforts related to that work.
