Chemistry 559 - Comp & Math Methods/Chem

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