Fall 2021 - Chemical Analysis Class Projects
Joshua A. Sebree led his upper level undergraduate fall 2021 CHEM 4310 instrumental Analysis class in analyzing various UNI Museum objects. The class was designed as a way for students to understand how analytical instruments work, the proper way to use instruments, and how to perform independent research while collecting publishable results. Students worked in groups to prepare and submit posters to display their work.
