New Course Description
CHM 104 Food Fundamentals
This course explores food composition and digestion, topics which lie at the cross sections of both chemistry and biology. The exploration of food will begin from a chemical perspective. Students will learn about the chemical makeup and interactions of fats, oils, sugars, and proteins. The class will then explore how the human body digests each of these molecules and obtains the nutrients needed for survival. Students’ understanding of the role of food in our lives will be made more complete through discussions of contemporary debates involving food. Some of the topics may include the impact of high fructose sugar, the lack of food in local and global communities, food regulation, and the role of food in education. Includes laboratory. No prerequisite.
CHEMISTRY
CHM 220 Advanced Chemical Principles This one-term course is a combination of CHM 211 and 212 specifically designed for students with strong backgrounds in chemistry and mathematics. Topics include stoichiometry, thermodynamics, atomic and molecular structure, kinetics and equilibrium. Students will participate in module or project driven laboratory exercises. AP chemistry score of 2.0 or higher, or member of the Honors Program, or consent of instructor required. Fall term.
