Computational Chemistry Course

What will I learn?

Unlock the power of using computers in chemistry with our full course, made for people who work with chemistry. Go deep into quantum chemistry, learn about the Schrödinger equation, and understand how molecules link together using orbitals. Become good at using programs like Gaussian and ORCA, and get better at looking at data and writing reports. Learn how to guess what molecules will do, check how they react, and work out energy levels. Make yourself a real expert with lessons that are practical and useful in the real world.
