CHEM 2600: Information Retrieval for Chemists

Course outline, information and materials for all undergraduate chemists.

Semester chemicals

Each student is assigned to a particular chemical  for the semester.  You may be asked to research a particular chemical in a source.  Do the assignment for the chemical you have been assigned only--i.e. each student will have a different chemical to look up and each student will research one and only one chemical for any question. 

Chemical names will be emailed to each student on Wednesday Jan 18.  Please retain that email!

Semester Numbers

Every student will receive a number for the semester.  When a question on an assignment has a numbered list of topics/data under the question, you will answer the question using ONLY the topic/data given for the number you were assigned for the semester.  

Here are the names and numbers assigned for the semester.  Your number is found under the first three letters of your last name.
