Prerequisites: Biology 141 and 142; Chemistry 171 and 172 or 221.
Crosslisted: CHEM330-000.

Catalog Description: (Same as Chemistry 330.) Spring. Prerequisites: Chemistry 171, 172, or 221. The course is designed to put to use what you already know about chemistry and to extend it in two directions. On the one hand, we will examine the world around us as reflected by the media, the web, and encounters in your own lives. Thus, we'll examine issues around natural and unnatural molecules, the environment, disease, and society in the context of topics such as drugs, molecules for Mars, aging, AIDS, bioterrorism, and crime in the courtroom. On the other hand, we will examine these ideas by means of computer graphics, the molecular structure of small molecules and proteins, and energy.
