The Chemistry-Computers program is designed to provide a
vehicle for preparing students in the area of intensive computer use in the
field of chemistry. The use of computers has long been important in chemistry,
but in recent years areas such as molecular modeling and design have become
increasingly important. Drug companies use these techniques for the design of
drugs for particular medical problems. In addition, most of the modern
analytical instruments are highly enhanced by on-line computer processing of
data. This program is designed to enable students to enter industry or graduate
programs in areas such as computational chemistry, chemical information
retrieval, or molecular design.
