| Description: | 2nd half Semester Course This course aims to provide students with an understanding of analytical instrument design and rapid prototyping utilizing desktop fabrication technologies. Students will gain hands-on experience with computer-aided design (CAD), 3D printing, and electronic circuits required for constructing an instrument for chemical analysis. Practical application of instrumental design principles, figures of merit determination, statistical methods, and iterative prototyping strategies will be explored. In addition, students will engage with the primary research literature and connect instrumental analysis activities to prominent chemical principles from previous coursework. This course will emphasize critical thinking, creative problem solving, quantitative data analysis, and scientific communication skills through maintaining a detailed laboratory notebook, a cumulative research report, weekly technical discussions, and an oral presentation. This course does not count towards the major if CHE487 or CHE488 is also taken. Enrollment is by instructor permission. |
