CAD 128 - Modeling and Simulation II
Last Date of Approval: Spring 2022
2 Credits
Total Lecture Hours: 30
Total Lab Hours: 0
Total Clinical Hours: 0
Total Work-Based Experience Hours: 0
Course Description:
This course will explore the strategies and tools of the modeling of systems and processes. Students will use software to construct models that simulate both discrete and continuous conditions of change. By observing the behavior of systems and processes, students will gain an understanding of their roles in the workplace. This knowledge will give the student a world view perspective of change as it occurs in systems and processes of everyday life, and the effects of their interaction with those systems and processes.
Prerequisites: MAT-748 Technical Math II or MAT-102 Intermediate Algebra
