For cell biologychromatographic apparati are essential to support fractionation. The following chromaticapparati are needed: (a) partition (paper), (b) thin-layer, and (c) column.Instruments are needed for use in chemistry to prepare materials and process samples. Topromote laboratory safety, eye wash stations, chemical storage cabinets and exhaust hoods withutilities are needed.

We believe the broader and more diverse theportfolio, the better chance we have of getting students to participate.In planning our expansion of programs available to students in the BCoE, we consider thefollowing program attributes from a college of engineering perspective. These attributes becameapparent as we researched other programs to look for ideas and partners. 1. ownership: who has direct responsibility for the program in terms of content, recruiting, logistics, etc. a. internal: college of engineering or department b. external: another unit on campus
