Molecular Modeling in the PC Lab
The Chemistry Department has robust software capable of advanced computation in its Learning Commons (Foster 413/414) as well as in faculty research labs of its two computational chemists. The University possesses a campus site-license for HyperChem Molecular Modeling software. The Department has a site license for CambridgeSoft ChemOffice Ultra which includes ChemDraw and Chem3D. Additionally two workstations in the physical chemistry instructional lab run Gaussian03 for advanced computation. These softwares are used routinely in instruction throughout the curriculum as well as in undergraduate and graduate research. The Department is planning implementation of a VDI (Virtual Desktop Infrastructure) that will allow students to run chemistry software on their own personal wifi devices.
