120 credits with 60 credits in chemistry or physics including 4 credits completed in Chemical Bonding and Computational Chemistry. Proficiency in English equivalent to the Swedish upper secondary course English 6.
Computational quantum chemistry (QC) can generate new information as well as deep and detailed understanding within virtually all fields of chemistry. The course covers different electron-correlated QC methods for molecules and condensed-matter systems (solids, surfaces and nanomaterials), e.g., for energy and catalysis applications. Electronic structure from bonds to bands, geometric structure, energetics and vibrations will be discussed. The course starts with a short review of quantum mechanics.
