Abstract

Proper education of a modeling and simulation professional meeting the extensive criteria imposed by the community poses significant challenges. In this paper, we explore the formation of a university-based education in modeling and simulation to meet the challenges. We examine the factors affecting the composition of a modeling and simulation course. Based on the anticipated consequences, we propose potential solutions.
