| Description: | 2nd Half Semester course. Must take CHE-371-01, 1st half semeter in order to take CHE-371-02 during the 2nd half semester. Building on introductory experience with digital design and fabrication, this course emphasizes the development of custom analytical instrumentation and applied electronics. Students will integrate 3D-printed and laser-cut components with sensors, actuators, and Arduino-based microcontrollers to design, prototype, and refine functional laboratory devices. Coursework will introduce fundamental Arduino programming skills, circuit design, and data acquisition methods, with a focus on adapting instruments for chemical and environmental analysis. Through collaborative projects, students will progress from initial concept to fully functioning prototypes, developing practical skills in iterative design, troubleshooting, and instrument optimization. Enrollment is by instructor permission, as students must complete the first half-semester of CHE-371 in order to participate in this follow-on course. |
