Primarily for Graduates.
Course 4D: Advanced Analytical Chemistry.—This graduate course
is designed for those seeking the degree of Ph. D., and also for such
students as desire to increase the range of their experience as analysts,
and to cultivate their powers of original investigation.
It is required for those who enter this course that they shall have
previously completed courses 1B, 2C and 3C in this School and Courses
1B, 2B and 3C in the School of Chemistry, or that they shall have
previously made equivalent attainments elsewhere.
Laboratory work will be conducted daily, and suggestions and due
assistance will be given in its prosecution.
While the work is adapted to the special aims or tastes of each
student, it will in all cases comprise some practice in the more elaborate
processes of analysis, ultimate and proximate organic analysis, some
study in analytical methods and some original problems, also the reading
and the summarizing of extracts from current journals, and, for all
who are seeking the degree of Ph. D., a dissertation embodying the results
of some original research.
The Analytical Laboratory is a building planned and erected for the
purpose. It is warmed throughout by hot water, completely fitted with
the most approved appliances, and stocked with apparatus, models, materials,
and specimens. The main working room is furnished with worktables,
gas, water, and all proper fixtures; smaller rooms are devoted to
weighing, evaporations, assaying, etc.
