CHEM 391 - Instrumental Analysis

3 Credit Hours , 1 Lab Hours
The aim of the course is to introduce you to the main methods of instrumental analysis. You will gain an understanding of the chemical principles behind the instrumental techniques, a working knowledge of instrument operation, and cognizance of the applications of instrumental analysis. Given the rapid growth in the type and complexity of chemical instrumentation, it would be difficult to cover every technique available. However, this course should provide you with the fundamental background on the workings of many important types of instruments that you will likely encounter in the future such as infrared (IR), ultraviolet-visible and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy as well as atomic absorption (AA), X-ray diffraction (XRD), polarized light microscopy, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Lecture and laboratory. 

Prerequisite(s): CHEM 390  with a minimum grade of C-.
