This course is a formal introduction to the primary and secondary chemical literature and serves to prepare students with the literature skills necessary to complete their senior capstone project. As such, it is normally taken by students in the spring of their junior year and is a prerequisite of the capstone courses. Students wishing to travel abroad that semester will need to consult with the department to arrange an alternative. In the course, students will practice searching, reading and evaluating the chemical literature. They will also learn writing skills relevant to scientific papers. In this context, students will be instructed in ethics and pathways beyond Pacific.
