Open courses in Chemistry
Wolverine Access Subject listing for CHEM
Take me to the Fall Term '00 Time Schedule for Chemistry.
To see what first-year courses have been added or changed in Chemistry this week go to What's New This Week.
The Chemistry Department has three types of courses available for students starting out toward careers in any of the sciences, engineering, or medicine. Students are placed into these courses according to the results of the tests in chemistry and mathematics that they take during orientation.
For students interested in the sciences, engineering or medicine, either Chem. 130 or Chem. 210/211 can be their starting point. Students who have had a strong course in high school (which may include AP credit in chemistry) are advised to start in Chem. 210 and 211, the laboratory course that accompanies it. Chem. 130 is recommended for all other students. Section 400 of Chem. 130 is reserved for students who would benefit from a smaller lecture section and more frequent contact with both senior faculty and teaching assistants.
Students who have had little or no laboratory work in high school should plan to elect Chem. 125 with Chem. 130. Other students electing Chem. 130 may postpone laboratory to a subsequent term.
Laboratory Check-in
Check into labs on the first day they are scheduled. You must take a print-out of your class schedule to Lab Check-in. If you fail to appear, your space may be given to a waitlisted student two hours after the lab begins. You are at risk of having to waitlist for another lab.
Chem 125, 211 and 216 Laboratory Waitlist
Prior to the first day of class, check for openings at CRISP first. Fill out Waitlist Form in 1500 Chemistry. Go to Room 1706 Chemistry to get into labs two hours after desired lab begins. Sections will be assigned there; student will take override to Chem Lab to check in immediately. You will be registered automatically into the section(s) shown on the override.
Chem. 105/AOSS 105. Our Changing Atmosphere.
Section 001.
Prerequisites & Distribution: (3). (NS). (BS).
Credits: (3).
Course Homepage: http://www.engin.umich.edu/class/aoss105/
This course considers the science needed to understand human-induced threats to the atmospheric environment, with special emphasis on the global changes that are taking place, or are anticipated. We will discuss the greenhouse effect (and its impact on climate), ozone depletion, the polar ozone holes, and urban air pollution. Some basic meteorology will be presented, including how climate changes might affect the frequency and severity of hurricanes and tornadoes. Students will have access to real-time weather information via computer. This lecture course is intended for non-science concentrators, and there are no prerequisites. Grades will be based on three one-hour exams (no final exam) and homework.
Chem. 108/Geol. 130/Phys. 119. The Physical World.
Section 001.
Prerequisites & Distribution: High-school algebra. (4). (NS). (BS). (QR/2).
Credits: (4).
Course Homepage: http://www.geo.lsa.umich.edu/~keken/130.html
See Geological Sciences 130.001.
Chem. 130. General Chemistry: Macroscopic Investigations and Reaction Principles.
Section 100 – Exams (All Sections) Tues, Sept 26, Oct 24 & Nov 14, 8:00 – 10:00 p.m. Students Electing Chem 130 May Also Elect Chem 125.
Prerequisites & Distribution: Three years of high school math or Math. 105; one year of high school chemistry recommended. Placement by testing, or permission of Chemistry department. Intended for students without AP credit in chemistry. (3). (NS). (BS). (QR/2).
Credits: (3).
Course Homepage: http://www.umich.edu/~chem130/
This General Chemistry course is intended to satisfy the one-term chemistry requirement for students interested in science, or as a natural science elective for non-science concentrators. This course may also be used as the first term in a four or more term chemistry sequence (probably 130, 210/211, 215/216, 260/241/242, etc.) for science concentrators and pre-professional students.
Chemistry 130 provides an introduction to the major concepts of chemistry, including the microscopic picture of atomic and molecular structure, periodic trends in the chemical reactivity, the energetics of chemical reactions, and the nature of chemical equilibria. Students will be introduced to the fundamental principles of modern chemistry, the descriptive chemistry of the elements, and to the underlying theories that account for observed macroscopic behavior. In Chem. 130, students will learn to think critically, examine experimental data, and form generalizations about data as chemists do. Chem. 130 will meet three times each week in lecture sections with senior faculty (the intensive section will have four lectures a week), and once a week in small group discussion classes led by graduate student instructors. Lecturers and graduate student instructors will have scheduled office hours for after-class help, and computerized study aids will be available to all students. Course grades will be determined from discussion class evaluation, three one-hour examinations (Tuesday nights), and a final examination.
The intensive lecture section (Section 400) is intended for those students who would benefit from a smaller lecture section (maximum 100 students) and more lectures so that the pace is slower and there is more feedback. Placement by LS&A testing or permission of the Chemistry Department (1500 Chemistry) is needed for enrollment in this section.
Chem. 130. General Chemistry: Macroscopic Investigations and Reaction Principles.

Chem. 211. Investigations in Chemistry.
Prerequisites & Distribution: To be taken with Chem. 210. (1). (NS). (BS). Laboratory fee ($67.50) required.
Credits: (1).
Lab Fee: Laboratory fee ($67.50) required.
Course Homepage: http://www.umich.edu/~chem211/
Chemistry 211 is a laboratory introduction to methods of investigation in inorganic and organic chemistry. Students solve individual problems using microscale equipment and a variety of techniques such as thin layer chromatography, titrations, and spectroscopy. The course consists of a four-hour laboratory period with a teaching assistant under the supervision of the professor. Students keep laboratory notebooks, which also serve as laboratory reports. Grades are based on performance in the laboratory and the laboratory notebooks.
NOTE: This course is linked to Chemistry 210. The recitation sections for Chemistry 210 and laboratory sections for Chemistry 211 should be the same section numbers(e.g., Chem 210/100/122 and Chem 211/100/122). Students must elect both Chemistry 210 (for 4 credits) and Chemistry 211 (for 1 credit).
