Primarily for Graduates.
Analytical Chemistry D1: 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 Analytical Chemistry B1, Analytical
Chemistry C1 and Industrial Chemistry C1, in this School and Courses
B1, B2, and C1 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. Professor Dunnington.
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 work-tables, gas, water, and all proper fixtures; smaller rooms
are devoted to weighing, evaporations, assaying, etc.
