This project introduces contemporary nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)           spectroscopy into the physical science curriculum by acquisition and use        of a high-field FT NMR spectrometer.  Major advances over the past              decade have transformed this technique into a fundamental tool of               chemistry and physics, as well as a cornerstone of emergent medical             technology (NMR imaging).  Available equipment is both accessible to            nonexperts and capable of performing such previously difficult or               impossible tasks as high-field NMR, 2-D NMR, and relaxation                     measurements.  With this equipment the students -- a substantial number         go on to careers in science, medicine and industry -- have hands-on             experience with equipment and techniques they will encounter later.  The        use of FT-NMR spectroscopy is integrated into the core chemistry and            physics curriculum, which is also critical to majors in related fields.         Improved classes and laboratories, together with existing faculty               expertise, serve to enhance student research.  The grantee provides             funds for this project that are an equal match for the NSF award.
