Abstract
This NSF Highlights communication reports on the incorporation of computational chemistry into the physical chemistry curriculum resulting from workstations and software funded by an NSF ILI award. The new course and computational experiments are described. Structural changes made to more effectively teach computational chemistry in the context of the course are discussed.
Supplement
Supplemental material describing the wet and computational laboratory exercises in more detail is available in this issue of JCE Online.
