Modeling and Simulation Education Track

Description

Many educational institutions have begun to offer either courses or entire degree programs in modeling and simulation (M&S). This track is soliciting papers that explore the emerging field of M&S education and the issues surrounding its development and use. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

· Modeling and simulation as its own discipline

· Modeling and simulation body of knowledge: what should be included?

· Modeling and simulation curriculum: engineering, science, or multidisciplinary?

· Modeling and simulation research and its role in education

· Modeling, simulation, and gaming as a teaching tool

Modeling and simulation and workforce development: what are the challenges?
