Course Description

A general and conceptual discussion of the biology and chemistry behind consumer and industrial products. Emphasis will be on the innovations that laid the foundation for these products and how they have impacted the economy and/or society. Also to be considered are the challenges related to commercializing innovation from both a consumer and competitive point of view. Case studies will be used to illustrate specific topics.

Notes

On-campus exam requirement for online offerings: For online sections of this course, your midterm and final exam will be written in person at the Toronto Metropolitan University campus. If you live more than 100 km from the TMU campus, you may arrange to write your exam off-campus using an approved off-campus invigilation service. Details on your exam date and how to arrange off-campus invigilation can be found on the Exams for Online Courses webpage.
