Full-time form
Prerequisites and co-requisites
Students must have basic knowledge of university courses in higher mathematics (Calculus&Calculus_2), basics of physics, statistical methods in chemistry (probability theory), crystal chemistry at the bachelor's level.
Course content
The main approaches to the quantum chemical description of systems and the use of the appropriate mathematical apparatus are presented. The theory of chemical bonding for di- and polyatomic molecules is considered. The application of the theory of symmetry with elements of group theory for the interpretation of chemical bonds in polyatomic molecules is shown.
