(Prerequisite: CARP 1115 Emerging Construction Technologies 1) (2 Credits: 1 lecture/1 lab) CARP2230 Carpentry Internship An internship allows the student the opportunity to work in an actual industry setting. This site must provide the student with skill building opportunities learned in previous courses of study and provide work that challenges the student beyond that of an unskilled worker. (Prerequisite: none) (7 credits: 0 lecture/0 lab/7 OJT) CHEM1010 Fundamentals of Chemistry The purpose of this course is to introduce basic chemical principles and theories for students intending to take the General, Organic and Biochemistry or other General chemistry courses. It is intended for students with no recent background in chemistry. It covers measurements in chemistry; the concepts of matter and energy; elements, mixtures and compounds; chemical formulas; atomic theory and structure; the formation and nomenclature of compounds; chemical bonds; basic chemical reactions; and chemical quantities. (Prerequisite: None) (3 Credits: 2 lecture/1 lab) CHEM1431 Principles of Chemistry II This is the second semester of an in-depth study of general chemistry. Topics covered include solubility, acids and bases, chemical kinetics and equilibria, thermochemistry and oxidation reduction. Lab is practical applications of topics covered in class, emphasizing collection, reporting, and interpretation of data. (Fulfills MnTC Goals 2 and 3) (Prerequisite: CHEM1430 Principles of Chemistry I) (4 credits: 3 lecture/1 lab) CHEM2518 General, Organic & Biochemistry I This course is intended as a broad intro to the basic principles of general, organic, and biochemistry. Atomic structure, radioactivity, ionic and covalent compounds, reactions, oxidation-reduction, solutions, acids and bases are covered through descriptive, theoretical, and laboratory topics. These principles are related to organic and biological chemistry throughout the course as it is a foundational course for students enrolled in the health related programs. However, this course is open to all students enrolled in any program. (Fulfills MnTC Goal 2 & 3) (Prerequisite: Successful completion of CHEM1010 Fundamentals of Chemistry or permission from the instructor) (4 credits: 3 lecture/1 lab) 116 Course Descriptions CHEM1122 Environmental Chemistry Environmental Chemistry introduces non-science students to the world of chemical processes, both natural and artificial, in their daily experiences. These phenomenon are related to current environmental issues in the context of human activities and influences. Topics discussed include air pollution, ozone depletion, global warming, acid rain, nuclear power issues, energy sources and the impact recycling has on our environment. (Meets MnTC Goals 3 & 10) (Prerequisite: none) (3 credits: 2 lecture/1 lab) CHEM1225 Introduction to Forensic Science This chemistry course will explore the scientific basis and background for crime-scene investigations. Students will explore the entire field of forensic science, including the different kinds of physical evidence, collection, preservation, and proper analysis of evidence, current technologies and techniques used to examine evidence, interpretation of results from a variety of forensic-laboratory analyses, and the ethical implications of using forensic data in a case. Students will perform several laboratory experiments to learn some data analysis techniques. (Meets MnTC Goals 3 & 9) (Prerequisite: none) (3 credits: 2 lecture/1 lab) CHEM1430 Principles of Chemistry I This is the first semester of an in-depth study of general chemistry. Topics covered include measurements, stoichiometry, solutions, gases, atomic and electronic structure, chemical bonding and thermochemistry. Lab is practical applications of topics covered in class, emphasizing collection, reporting, and interpretation of data. (Fulfills MnTC Goals 2 and 3) (Prerequisite: CHEM0510 or recent high school or college chemistry with permission of instructor) (4 credits: 3 lecture/1 lab) As a one-semester introduction to the field of chemistry this course is designed to allow students to understand how chemistry relates to everyday life by looking at classification of matter, reactivity, solutions and organic compounds. This course is intended for non-science majors interested in early childhood education or students wanting an introduction to the field of chemistry and does not require previous experience in chemistry. (MnTC goal 3) (Prerequisite: Accuplacer Elementary Algebra score of 61 or MATH0522) (4 credits: 3 lecture/1 lab)
