Students will be introduced to chemical databases, open source software applications and data mining during the course.
The course outlines:
- Theory: Basic understanding of Chemical Space, Chemical properties, chemical reactions and chemical databases
- Practical: Manipulation of chemical structure, chemical reactions, chemical activity prediction of drug likeliness and chemical properties, Chemical structure and substructure search
Course outcomes:
At the end of the course, a student will be able to
- Investigate chemicals and materials that are not practical for laboratory analysis.
- Model individual molecules or behaviors of chemical compounds within the natural world.
- Work with databases to catalog, categorize, organize, and search the structures of chemicals.
- Complement laboratory experimentation with computational chemistry
- Develop information-storage solutions at the molecular level.
Intake of candidates: Maximum intake of the candidates is 30.
Course Fee: Rs. 10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand Only) + GST as applicable. Fee paid once, will
not be refunded under any circumstances. The course fee does not include the hostel
