CHEM 135 - Chemistry for Animal Managers (4)
A chemistry course tightly focused on the chemistry concepts most pertinent to animal managers - individuals working with captive animals and wildlife under routine conditions as well as animal rehabilitation. The course begins with a brief introduction to reaction kinetics and equilibrium which allows for informed coverage of the following topics: fresh water chemistry; marine water chemistry; tank water quality; caloric, nutritional, spectral, and medicinal needs of animals; and the environmental partitioning, bioaccumulation, and degradation of major classes of environmental pollutants. Includes one 3-hour lab per week.
Prerequisite(s): CHEM 131 or equivalent.
Offered Spring 2027 and alternate Spring semesters.
