Course Objectives
?This course aims to give the theoretical and experimental basis of organic chemistry for
non-chemistry students.
Expectation from students;students are expected to share efficiently during the class by asking the questions ,and they are also welcomed to open or start discussion in the course related topics . They also expected to read and understand English to understand the terminology used in that course. They must attend the lectures and the lab sessions regularly to be able to make link between them.
Learning Resources
Main text books:
"Organic chemistry, by Graham Solomons TW, Craig B Fryhle, 8thed., 2007.
Course Requirements and Grading
?Two exams:one quiz15 Marks & midterm exam 15 Marks.
?Attendance and participation: 5 Marks.
?Lab: 25 Marks ---10 degree, classified on 10 lab session ,1degree for each arranged on the (attendance, wearing the lab coat, writing the result in the lab note book and the bench and the equipments cleaning after work )
?Final : 40 Marks
?The student should study hard to gain the fundamentals of the course.
?Attendance at the exact time of lectures and high degree of commitments is required.
?High concentration and side talking is forbidden.
?Effective participation of students during the lectures and this evaluated by a degree.
?Commitments by the time of quizzes and exams, and acceptable excuse must be given in case of absence
