Average Course Rating

The course allows students to become familiar with the essentials of concepts for modeling the structure of matter at nanoscales and the depending properties, as well as the way that they relate with measurements at human scales. Concepts on modeling, computer representation of nanosystems, origin of interactions between bodies at nanoscales and the different ways of finding the corresponding potential energy surfaces, including both classical and quantum mechanical procedures and described and even detailed when relevant. Applications can be on life materials, or other nanoscopic environments. It is designed for advanced undergraduate and graduate students in Chemistry, Physics, Biology, Pharmacy and Biochemistry, as well as physicians and engineers. Attendants must handle an essential ground in Mathematics, General Physics, Chemistry and related matters.
