Notes:
Abstract Analytical Chemistry is involved in the undergraduate curriculum in the US in many ways. It is one of four required subjects for accreditation of a college or university by the American Chemical Society. However there is much discussion underway in the US about change in the undergraduate training of analytical chemists to more closely reflect the “problem solving” nature of Analytical Chemistry, and to better address the needs of industry. It is suggested that the curriculum should emphasize the fundamentals but also teach applied Analytical Chemistry, the need for teamwork, and the importance of communication skills.
