Abstract

Green chemistry principles and practices have been infused in the chemistry curriculum at the University of Scranton, including courses in general, organic, and inorganic chemistry, biochemistry, environmental, polymer, industrial, and advanced organic chemistry, and chemical toxicology. Web-based green chemistry teaching modules have been developed for each of these courses. We describe the principles underlying green chemistry and methods of introducing these concepts into the curriculum with an example of incorporating green chemistry into the undergraduate lecture and laboratory organic sequence.
