Other than four semesters of calc., are there any other math courses to take as an undergrad to be well prepared for a PhD program in Chemical Physics? If so, what? Thanks.
 
on Phys.org
I think you should look into Complex analysis, Fourier Analysis, PDE/ODE-solving, linear algebra and basic FEM-solving. That should keep you covered and get you a sound mathematical background for phys chem.
 
Linear algebra (take two terms not one), ODE/PDE, and if you can a term of complex analysis and a term of statistics, although neither of these is absolutely essential.
 
Of course, I forgot statistics

Statistics is a very important concept to grasp. Especially when dealing with gases and other more theory-inclined subjects.
