CHEM 36800 - Advanced Computational Chemistry and Biology

Institution:

University of Chicago

Subject:

Description:

PQ: CHEM 26100-26200, or PHYS 19700 and 23400. This course may not be used to meet requirements for the BS degree. The theme for this course is the identification of scientific goals that computation can assist in achieving. The course is organized around the examination of exemplary problems, such as understanding the electronic structure and bonding in molecules and interpreting the structure and thermodynamic properties of liquids. The lectures deal with aspects of numerical analysis and with the theoretical background relevant to calculations of the geometric and electronic structure of molecules, molecular mechanics, molecular dynamics, and Monte Carlo simulations. The lab consists of computational problems drawn from a broad range of chemical and biological interests. Spring. L.
