CHEM 5810
Computational Methods in Chemistry

Course information provided by the 2023-2024 Catalog.

This course provides a broad overview of modern computational methods in Chemistry. Topics covered will include investigating the statistical mechanics of condensed phase chemical systems using Monte Carlo and Molecular Dynamics, quantum mechanical characterization of molecular energetics and structure using Electronic Structure Theory (Hartree Fock, Perturbation Theory, and Density Functional Theory), and time-dependent approaches to investigate chemical reaction dynamics and kinetics.


Prerequisites/Corequisites Prerequisite: one year of undergraduate physical chemistry, MATH 2130 or MATH 2310 or MATH 2220, PHYS 2208, CHEM 2080 or permission of instructor.

When Offered Spring.

Comments Lab work will be an integral component of this course and will involve introductory scientific programming, and the use of commercially available scientific software.
