Course description and aims

This course facilitates students' understanding of computational organic chemistry and how to get useful information about chemical compounds and reactions.

Student learning outcomes

At the end of this course, students will be able to have an understanding of the general concept of computational organic chemistry and acquire the ability to use the chemical database, i.e. SciFinder Scholar.

Keywords

computational chemistry
Spartan
calculation
SciFinder
database

Competencies that will be developed

Specialist skills Intercultural skills Communication skills Critical thinking skills Practical and/or problem-solving skills

Class flow

Towards the end of class, students are given exercise problems related to what is taught on that day to solve.
