Other Groups Engaged in Computational Chemistry on Campus

The Chemical and Petroleum Engineering Department has five groups engaged in computational chemistry research.

The Department of Computational and Systems Biology in the Medical School also has groups part of whose research has a significant computational chemistry component.

There are also several Theoretical & Computational Chemistry groups at Pittsburgh's two other major universities - Carnegie Mellon University and Duquesne University - as well as at the DOE National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) just outside the city.
