Automata and finite state machines, regular sets and regular languages, push-down automata and context-free languages, linear-bounded automata, computability and Turing machines, nondeterminism and undecidability. Prerequisites: CSC 110 and MTH 153. Enrollment limited to 30.

Lab section for Organic Chemistry. An introduction to the theory and practice of organic chemistry. The course focuses on structure, nomenclature, physical and chemical properties of organic compounds and infrared and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy for structural analysis. Reactions of carbonyl compounds and alkenes are studied in depth. Corequisite: CHM 222. Prerequisite: CHM 111/111L, CHM 114/114L or CHM 118/118L. Enrollment limited to 16. Multiple sections are offered at different times.

Reading and understanding research reports from the primary scientific literature is an essential skill for any scientist. Likewise, critiquing experimental proposals and freshly-minted data is one of the core components of the pursuit of science. Using the Biology Department Seminar series as a springboard, this course seeks to familiarize students with the process of understanding, appreciating, and critiquing scientific manuscripts.

In this honors colloquium, in addition to the requirements of the base course, students will need to complete additional work, research, and/or writing as directed by the instructor. Students will perform analysis of some type of data related to the course, and will learn how to create an annotated bibliography or literature review. Additionally, they will display their findings in either a paper or a presentation. Students will learn more in-depth how Sociologists do their research, how to locate and identify peer-reviewed academic work, and to explore a topic of interest to them.
