Computers in Chemistry
Computers are now in all labs throughout the world of chemistry and the Department has kept pace with the rapid growth of this technology. We have 40+ computers in the chemistry department including laptop computers for use in the general chemistry lab and 3-D workstation computers in the Computational Chemistry Lab. Two parallel computing clusters, one with 30 processors and a second with 50 processor cores and two Tesla GPUs, are located in the BDK Science Center. 蜜桃直播 faculty and students have also taken advantage of other computing resources available through a very high speed statewide network.
- Computational Chemistry Lab: located in Science Center, Room 243
All courses in the department that are designed for science majors incorporate computers in a variety of ways. This includes data acquisition, data analysis, modest and state-of-the-art computational labs, and Computer Assisted Instruction in the form of several tutorial programs. All Chemistry students become familiar with data acquisition, data analysis using spreadsheets and molecular modeling programs. All computers are networked and have internet access.
