I found the 'Computational Chemistry Fundamentals' course at Stanmore School of Business to be a great introduction to the field. As a student from Egypt, I was pleased to see that the course materials were relevant to my region and covered topics that are highly applicable to our local industries. The course helped me achieve my learning goals by providing a solid foundation in computational chemistry, including the basics of quantum mechanics and molecular modeling. I gained practical knowledge in using computational tools to analyze and predict the behavior of molecules, which will be useful in my future career. The instructors were helpful and responsive, and the course discussions were engaging and informative. One area for improvement could be the addition of more case studies or examples from the Middle East and Africa, which would make the course even more relevant to students from these regions. Overall, I'm satisfied with the course and would recommend it to others, but with the suggestion to include more diverse examples and applications.
