Course description and aims
Students learn the basics of physical chemistry necessary for studying life science and technology through exercises.
This course deals pwith physical chemistry for bioscience and biotechnologystudents. It quantitatively and qualitatively describes properties of macroscopicsystems, equilibrium and spontaneous changes, chemical reactions in gasand solution phase, physical processes, molecular dynamics, and genomeinfomatics. By taking specific life phenomena as subjects, the course willpromote an essential understanding of life phenomena. The ultimate goalof the course is to get an insight into the true nature of living organsfrom the view point of chemical and physical processes.
Student learning outcomes
Deepen understanding of physical chemistry classes, primarily PhysicalChemistry I, II, and III.
Specifically, students will acquire the ability to solve basic problemsin thermodynamics, electrochemistry, chemical kinetics, molecular dynamics,and genome informatics.
Keywords
