All work in the laboratory must be scheduled during the hours the laboratory is open. The chemistry department is one of the original departments of Phoenix College, dating to the 1920's. Two dozen lecture and laboratory courses provide a range of chemistry education from preparatory mathmatics, fundamental and general chemistry, organic chemistry, analytical chemistry and independent study. There are chemistry classes on week days, afternoons, evenings and even on Saturday. Your teachers and other instructors are available for help and consultation.
Free tutors are also available.
We keep our labs safe by maintaining a safety oriented environment. By presenting material to support this at every laboratory period, our enthusiasm for safety is conveyed to our students. Handling and reacting chemicals have inherent dangers, so we minimize those dangers by taking steps such as safety manuals, equipment, training, testing and supervision. Knowlege of the faculty and staff is constantly advancing and safety is taught to the students as part of the lab courses. Other laboratory policies.
