The Threads outline potential pathways through the academic program. Students craft their degrees by combining these Threads, with the flexibility to choose their specialization timeline early or later in their studies. Designed for adaptability, the Threads accommodate diverse technical and creative pursuits while ensuring consistent skill development in computing, even if interests evolve. The Modeling - Simulation thread caters to students seeking expertise in representing natural and human-engineered systems—like weather patterns, biological functions, supply networks, or computing systems—through mathematical models and software. These models are crucial for analyzing and forecasting system behaviors. Given their mathematical foundations and frequent application to physical phenomena, proficiency in math and science is essential. Pairing this with advanced computer science training provides the foundation for translating conceptual models into efficient digital simulations. The thread's curriculum covers continuous and discrete mathematics, sciences, and computing, with electives allowing deeper exploration of Modeling - Simulation applications in specific fields.
