Prerequisites:
The course will introduce the basic concepts of computation through modeling and simulation that are increasingly being used by engineers. Students will use MATLAB to explore a range of programming and modeling concepts while acquiring those skills. They will then undertake a final project that analyzes one of a variety of scientific problems by designing a representative model, implementing the model, completing a verification and validation process of the model, reporting on the model in oral and written form, and changing the model to reflect corrections, improvements and enhancements.
