Learning outcomes
General
- Understand, use and apply theories and principles behind important chemical reactions in biochemistry and physiology, such as acid/base reactions, chemical equilibria, redox reactions, etc.
- Understand and use the terminology, functional groups, and reactivity of organic compounds.
- Demonstrate quantitative reasoning skills and competency with arithmetic, algebra, and statistics at a level appropriate for intermediate level science majors.
- Recall, explain and apply the concepts, knowledge and vocabulary of general chemistry at the level necessary for success in intermediate and upper division course for science majors.
Minnesota Transfer Curriculum
Goal 3: Natural Sciences
- Demonstrate understanding of scientific theories.
- Formulate and test hypotheses by performing laboratory, simulation, or field experiments in at least two of the natural science disciplines. One of these experimental components should develop, in greater depth, students' laboratory experience in the collection of data, its statistical and graphical analysis, and an appreciation of its sources of error and uncertainty.
- Communicate their experimental findings, analyses, and interpretations both orally and in writing.
- Evaluate societal issues from a natural science perspective, ask questions about the evidence presented, and make informed judgments about science-related topics and policies.
