CHEM 6013 Laboratory Research III

This course is third in the series of laboratory research courses and is designed to train students to critically fuse ideas, implement new protocols, and bring projects to their fruition, culminating in a dissertation. In this course, emphasis is placed on mastery of the skill sets gained in previous research courses, as well as development of creative and ethical research practices. Emphasis is also placed on the continued development in the areas of synthesis, properties, characterization
and theoretical approaches to materials and biomaterials. The major goal is to build on the skill sets students have obtained in the other courses of this series and independently start consolidating research, synthetic, and analytical skills for careers in the global chemical and materials industry. This course continues to educate students in peer review publishing procedures, publication writing, and transmittal protocols. Students start honing the ability to summarize research findings
in the form of research report, oral and poster presentations.
