Latest Technology for All Undergraduates |
| In April 1996, the National Science Foundation awarded the Department of Chemistry and Physics with a $59,542 grant to establish a computer-based molecular modeling program. All chemistry students in General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Physical Chemistry, Biochemistry, and Computational Chemistry will gain hands-on experience in modern molecular modeling techniques developed by the pharmaceutical industry. NSF support for this program will establish Winthrop University's chemistry department as a center of excellence for undergraduate molecular modeling education. |

Information on Molecular Modeling |
| Molecular Modeling is the 3 dimensional rendering of molecules in an environment produced by computer graphics. Molecular Modeling is a branch of Computational Chemistry which includes Computational Methods. These methods are the methods by which the coordinates of the atoms of a molecules and their bonds are produced. Thus, Molecular Modeling is completely dependent upon these Computational Methods. |
