University of Virginia Library

SCHOOL OF ANALYTICAL AND INDUSTRIAL CHEMISTRY.

Students taking courses in analytical chemistry are required to pay a
special tuition fee of $40 for each course. Each student is required also to
pay a laboratory fee of $10, and to make a deposit of $10 for one course,
or $15 for two courses, to cover the cost of apparatus.

Analytical Chemistry C1: Quantitative Analysis: Analytical Chemistry
B1 prerequisite.—Training in manipulation and gravimetric estimations, followed
by volumetric estimations and a full course in quantitative analysis
of minerals, ores, coal, soil, iron and steel, technical products, and so on.

Weekly written exercises are required. As the student advances in the
course he is encouraged to undertake original research and assist in its
prosecution. Mon., Wed., Fri., 9-10. Laboratory, 12 hours or more a
week. Professor Dunnington and Mr. Robertson.

Students who accomplish the work of Analytical Chemistry B1 and C1
and Industrial Chemistry B1, together with Chemistry B1, B2, and C1, are
prepared for entering upon work in the several lines of industry.

Analytical Chemistry D1: Analytical Chemistry C1, Industrial Chemistry
B1, and Chemistry B1, B2 and C1 prerequisite.—The work is adapted to the
special aims or tastes of each student, but 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.
Laboratory work will be conducted daily, and suggestions and due
assistance given.—Hours by appointment. Professor Dunnington.

The Chemical Laboratory, recently completed, is of brick, fire-proof
construction, and the three floors afford 30,000 square feet of space. The
seven larger laboratories will accommodate 625 students, and, in addition
to these, there are smaller laboratories for the use of instructors and advanced
students. There are also rooms for assay furnaces, gas and water
analysis, photography, etc. The building is supplied throughout with water,
gas and electricity. A commodious working library is available for the
students, containing about 4,000 books directly related to chemistry, and
complete files of the more important chemical journals.
