- Objectives:
- Simulation is a powerful computational tool for many scientific problems. Case studies and projects will be drawn from various fields. Prior programming experience is not required; all necessary computational skills will be developed in the course.
- This course is intended to introduce simulation as a tool for exploring interesting scientific/mathematical topics. We will introduce and work extensively on all required programming tools and constructs. The class will sproadically meet in the Mathlab rather than our classroom for this purpose.
- Projects, HW exams etc.: Much of the course will be group project driven with frequent progress reports to our class. Final and midterm group project presentations will be our exams and we will have a few individual HW assignments. Final project presentations will be presented during the scheduled final exam slot.
