Winona State NMR Project
This page reports on our NSF Course and Curriculum Improvement Grant. The grant provided half of the funds necessary to purchase a new 300-MHz NMR Instrument. The title of the grant project was, "Adaptation and Implementation of Modern NMR Techniques throughout the Undergraduate Chemistry Curriculum."
The grant was awarded in January 2002. The new NMR, a JEOL ECX 300 system, was commissioned in January 2003. It was moved to the new Science Laboratory Facility in August 2004.
