Concentrators are required to take 20 courses in chemistry, physics, computational science and mathematics, although approved courses in applied mathematics, biology, geological sciences or engineering may be substitutes. Computational chemistry and chemical physics concentrators are also advised to take at least six courses in the humanities and social sciences. Computational chemistry and chemical physics concentrators at all levels (first-year through seniors) are actively involved in research with faculty members in both departments.
Computational Chemistry and Chemical Physics
The computational chemistry and chemical physics concentration is an interdisciplinary field at the crossroads of chemistry and physics and is administered jointly by the departments of Chemistry and Physics. The concentration provides students with a broad-based understanding in fundamental molecular sciences, as well as a background for graduate studies in physical chemistry, chemical physics or molecular engineering.
