Chemistry with molecular modelling is a chemistry-based creative-science course that is used to develop everything from new materials such as superconductors for new batteries, to new drug molecules for the pharmaceutical industry. Without it, many modern science disciplines such as materials science, molecular biology and environmental science would not be possible.

Chemistry with molecular modelling embeds computer modelling techniques and how they can be applied to understand and explore chemistry. Advancements in molecular modelling have led to an explosive growth in a range of applications. The modelling aspects of this course focus on modelling the structure and reactivity of molecules and solids including:
The simulation of the structure and properties of materials and nano-materials, including oxides, semiconductors and catalysts
Modelling of how electrons are arranged in materials and how they behave during chemical reactions
Modelling organic and bio-organic molecules, including DNA, proteins, drug molecules and computational drug design
The theory and implementation of different approaches to modelling materials
