PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
The Graduate Certificate in Systems Simulation for Engineers provides students with an introduction to the area of advanced simulation modeling. The Graduate Certificate in Systems Simulation for Engineers provides students with the necessary background in probability and statistics, fundamental simulation modeling skills, essentials for designing and analyzing simulation experiments, and an introduction to an area of advanced simulation modeling. Discrete event simulation provides very powerful modeling capabilities to engineers. Simulation is particularly valuable because models of complex systems can be constructed and probabilistic or random forces can be represented in those models.
