Modeling and Simulation - An Interdisciplinary, Project-Based First Year Course
The document describes a year-long interdisciplinary course on modeling and simulation offered at Olin College of Engineering, covering topics from single-variable calculus to multivariable calculus and physics. The course emphasizes hands-on, project-based learning, where students engage in simulations, model various systems, and work collaboratively on real-world problems, culminating in presentations of their findings. It highlights the importance of communication skills alongside technical competencies, fostering an environment of student self-direction and creative problem-solving.
