CHEM 7231 - Theoretical Chemistry (3 Credit Hours)

Lecture Hours: 3 Lab Hours: 0
Chemistry research is increasingly supported by quantum chemical computations. This course will provide students with a complete understanding of ab initio quantum chemistry. Students are exposed to Hartree-Fock, MP2, and Coupled Cluster Theory in addition to basis sets and practical computational approaches. Upon completion, students will be able to choose a proper computational method, to diagnose issues that may arise within such computations, and also to compare methods from mathematical arguments. Prior knowledge in quantum chemistry and/or mechanics is highly recommended.
