Organic Chemistry I is a foundational course designed to introduce students to the fundamental principles and concepts of organic chemistry. This course provides a systematic exploration of carbon-based compounds, their structures, properties, and reactions. Students will develop essential skills in understanding molecular structure, nomenclature, stereochemistry, and reaction mechanisms that form the basis for advanced study in organic chemistry, biochemistry, and related fields.
The course emphasizes both theoretical understanding and practical application, preparing students to analyze organic molecules, predict their behavior, and understand their role in biological systems and industrial processes. Through a combination of lectures, problem-solving sessions, and laboratory work, students will gain confidence in manipulating chemical structures and understanding the logic behind organic reactions.
