"Introduction to Gaussian: Theory and Practice." will be presented by representatives of Gaussian, Inc.
The workshops will cover the full range of methods available in the Gaussian 98 package with emphasis on new methods and features which make Gaussian 98 applicable to an ever widening spectrum of research applications.
The workshop is structured to provide an introduction to electronic structure theory as well as a hands-on review for researchers active in the field. The workshop is open to researchers at all levels of academic, government and industrial research.
Preliminary Topic List:
Independent Particle Methods
Model Chemistries: A Framework for Understanding Electronic
Structure Theory Results
Using ONIOM
MCSCF Methods and Applications
Geometry Optimization Techniques
Electron Correlation Methods
Density Functional Theory Methods
Methods for Excited Electronic States
Interpretation of Gaussian Results
Prediction of Molecular Properties

Estimating Resource Requirements
There will be hands-on sessions each day between the morning and afternoon
lectures. Additional hands-on sessions will be available until the building closes. Workshop participants will be provided with use of a workstations to complete exercises, experiment and/or conduct short research topics.
The GaussView user interface will be used to perform visualization of results and to facilitate calculation setup. Each workshop participant will also be provided a copy of the lecture notes, a copy of Exploring Chemistry with Electronic Structure Methods, 2nd Edition, and a Gaussian 98 User's Reference.
