- Prerequisites
- NOW( C7790 Intro. to Mol. Mod. )
Basic level of general and physical chemistry. A basic knowledge in quantum chemistry is an advantage. Knowledge of UNIX operation system is advantage. - Course Enrolment Limitations
- The course is also offered to the students of the fields other than those the course is directly associated with.
The capacity limit for the course is 30 student(s).
Current registration and enrolment status: enrolled: 15/30, only registered: 0/30, only registered with preference (fields directly associated with the programme): 0/30 - fields of study / plans the course is directly associated with
- there are 13 fields of study the course is directly associated with, display
- Course objectives
- At the end of the course students should be able to understand and explain how to use one of the commonly used modeling software packages.
- Learning outcomes
- Student will be able to:
- create appropriate models of studied problems;
- perform basic quantum-chemical and molecular-mechanical calculations;
- calculate interaction energy;
- find the transition state of the elementary reaction and determine its activation energy;
- describe the dynamics of small molecular system; - Syllabus
