Abstract
This paper highlights a new introductory level course entitled "Thermodynamics, Equilibria, and Kinetics" that provides students with an early introduction to incorporating analytical chemistry into their laboratory work. The rationale for creating the course and the course's format are outlined. Examples highlighting the use of spectroscopy illustrate the development of a student's ability to think as an analytical chemist.
