CHEM M117
Structure, Patterns, and Polyhedra
Chemistry and Biochemistry · 5 units · Undergraduate upper division (100-199)
(Same as Honors Collegium M180.) Exploration of structures and their geometric underpinnings, with examples and applications from architecture (space frames, domes), biology (enzyme complexes, viruses), chemistry (symmetry, molecular cages), design (tiling), engineering (space filling), and physics (crystal structures) to effect working knowledge of symmetry, two-dimensional patterns, and three-dimensional solids.
