Bio- and Sustainable Materials

Undergraduate

As technology makes increasing inroads into the chemical sciences, the development of new functional sustainable and biomaterials becomes increasingly important. This course focuses on the chemistry, characterization and applications of renewable and degradable polymers as well as on the chemistry of carbohydrates and amino acids, and the properties of their polymers. (Prerequisites: CHEM-2310, BIOC- 2010.) (May be offered as a cross-career course with CHEM-8461).
