500 Level
500 - Sci Teach in Chem
A course which includes lecture, seminar, workshop and field experience to provide a scientific framework for teaching chemistry and practice in strategies of scientific teaching.
Section | Type | Credits | Time/Location | Instructor |
---|---|---|---|---|
001 | Lecture | 2 | M, W, F 1300 - 1350 Mitchell Hall - 202 | Kuang-Chiu Ho |
501 - Molecular Struc Thry
General introduction to quantum mechanics with emphasis on chemical applications. Topics covered include basic postulates of quantum mechanics, standard analytically solvable quantum systems (free electrons, particle in a box, harmonic oscillator, rigid rotor, hydrogen atom), approximation methods (perturbation theory and the variational method). An introduction to molecular quantum mechanics, molecular spectroscopy and time-dependent perturbation theory.
