As demand for computational modeling and simulation (M&S) engineers continues to increase, much attention has been focused recently on what constitutes proper educational preparation for a career in this area. This paper presents an integrative concept for a modeling and simulation study program in electrical engineering at the undergraduate level used in developing a program for a cadre of students in the field of M&S at the Department of Electrical Engineering in the College of Engineering at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL). This integrative program is part of a course, curriculum, and laboratory improvement project called Undergraduate STEM Education Initiative in Creative Educational Innovations for Electrical Engineering Students (USE-ICE).
