Chemistry 590A - Computnl & Math Methods/Chem

This class is focused on computational and mathematical problems in chemistry using modern symbolic computational tools. Using the software platform Mathematica (free to UMass students via site license), we will develop tools for data visualization and manipulation, and statistical methods in chemistry. In addition, we will explore aspects differential equation solving and visualization of solutions. Finally, we will explore elements of linear algebra, linear transformations, and group theory as applied to chemical systems.
