Prerequisites: CEE 204; graduate standing; or consent of instructor

Description: Explores fundamental phenomenon of chemical reactivity on ground and excited state potential energy surfaces. Quantitatively relates electronic structure of catalytic materials to their chemical reactivity. Covers state-of-the-art experimental and theoretical approaches to studying catalytic reactivity. Provides a holistic understanding of catalysis at an atomic scale.

Cross-listing: Cross-listed with CEE 222, and CHEM 222.

Credit: May be taken Satisfactory (S) or No Credit (NC) with consent of instructor and graduate advisor.
