This minor is a good fit for those who are majoring in computer science, physics, mathematics, 电气工程, 机械工程, 以及ODU的土木工程. Students will learn how to formally model complex systems and then to use computer simulation to study the system behavior. Science and engineering students looking to improve their ability to study complex systems in their field through the use of computer simulations will benefit from the simulation application track as they already have the prerequisite math, science, 以及编程课程. The development track focuses on the software development of simulations. The application track focuses on the use of simulation tools.
