World of Chemistry Science and technology greatly contribute to our happy and long lives. The goal of this course is to learn how chemistry impacts our daily lives in common and extraordinary ways. After learning basic concepts of elements, atoms, and molecules, we will explore topics in energy (nuclear, solar, batteries, fuel cells, fossil fuels, and metabolism), environmental issues (acid rain, global warming, and ozone depletion), health (food and drug), synthetic material, and art (color, forgery detection, and art restoration).

I had no idea what to expect from this course. Having never been much of a STEM person, and not having loved high school chemistry, I was somewhat worried. My fears were soon assuaged, however, by Sunhee's incredibly warm, sunny personality ("Sunny" Sunhee) and her infectious love of chemistry. And her interests are not limited to chemistry; she is a passionate aficionado of the fine arts, and I love how she the course incorporated her non-scientific interests, such as her love of Michelangelo! She is a truly remarkable woman, one of the most intelligent people I have ever met, and I feel so privileged to have been able to take a course with her.
