CHEM 440 - Introduction to Computational Chemistry Credits 3 This course introduces the principles of computational chemistry, including computational methods for molecular design, visualization, and the prediction of molecular properties such as charge, geometry, stability, photodynamics, and spectroscopic characteristics. The course will survey the most commonly used computational methods, their applicability and limitations, enabling students to select appropriate methods for the solution of practical problems in research and industrial applications. Beginning with visualization tools, the use of crystallographic data, the selection of coordinate systems, the course will progress through classical molecular dynamics and force fields to progressively more advanced quantum mechanical methods including semiempirical models, Hartree-Fock, configuration interaction, and the application of density functional theory. Students will learn to perform geometry optimization, location of transition states, conformational analysis, and prediction of molecular and spectroscopic properties. The course will also cover solvation models, excited states, and the application of quantum methods to large molecular clusters. The class features a project-based approach that makes use of the STH computing cluster and various software packages for quantum chemical visualization and calculations, primarily using the Unix operating system.
