PEC-OH 0012 Organic Chemistry
Course Description
Organic chemistry is the branch of chemistry that deals with the study of carbon-containing compounds, which are the building blocks of life and play a critical role in various industries, including pharmaceuticals, petrochemicals, and materials science. This course provides a comprehensive introduction to the principles and concepts of organic chemistry, emphasizing the structure, properties, reactions, and synthesis of organic compounds.
Course Contents
Fundamental Tenets of Organic Chemistry Built upon the Foundations of Structure and Functional Groups. Exploration of the Principal Categories of Organic Compounds and Examination of the Characteristics of Pure Substances. An Introduction to Molecular Architecture, Diverse Bonding Patterns, Inherent Properties, Synthesis Techniques, and Reaction Mechanisms, allowing for a Systematic Approach to Understanding Organic Reactions.
Who can get Benefits from this course?
An organic chemistry course can benefit various individuals, depending on their interests, goals, and academic or professional pursuits. Here are some groups of people who can benefit from taking an organic chemistry course: Chemistry and Science Majors, Pre-Medical and Pre-Health Students, Chemical Engineers, Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Science Students, Biology and Biochemistry Majors, Environmental Science and Engineering Students, Material Science and Nanotechnology Researchers, and Anyone Interested in Chemistry. It’s important to note that while organic chemistry can be challenging, it provides a strong foundation for a wide range of scientific and technical careers.

The distance education program works as follows:
• Each course is 8 weeks in duration.
• You will receive a set of notes each week covering the course material via the internet. In addition, you will receive practice problems and assignments very similar to the associations past exams.
• A one-hour conference meeting session will be conducted by your instructor each week. The objective of this session is to assist in solving the assignments as well as answer student questions that should be sent to the instructor early enough prior to the meeting time. In addition, by being able to communicate with the instructor, you will also be able to communicate with other students in the same class and watch their questions answered as well.
• Each set of assignments must be completed and submitted by the indicated date and your completed assignment will be marked and returned by your instructor.
• Upon completion of the assignments, you will be sent a final exam. It is recommended that you try to simulate the actual exam conditions (i.e., no aids and a time limit) when writing it. You will then submit this final exam for review and marking.
