Can anyone tell me courses, books and software which I should learn to pursue graduate studies in Computational Materials Science / Molecular Modeling?
Can you suggest some open source software which can be used for Nanomaterials modelling? Modelling their electrical and optical properties.
If you can nominate an online course, seminar series which helped your understanding towards this said field, do mention it.
parallel to reading that book mentioned above you can start any open source software. All softwares are well documented and concerend forums are ready to help you. If you are interested You can start learning SIESTA. I can help you in this software. All the best.

You may wish to begin with the book Electronic Structure: Basic Theory and Practical Methods, by RM Martin (Cambridge University Press, 2004) - link attached below. Have a look through this book and then come back with any specific questions, should there be any questions. I shall be happy to guide you through the relevant literature.
