Mathematical Modeling: Goals and Objectives
Goals:
In this course, students will:
- Learn to translate real world problems into mathematical models
- Evaluate mathematical models and their results
- Test and refine models to fine tune results
- Communicate the modeling process and results to others.
- Work with others on modeling problems
Objectives:
The student will learn to:
- Identify and use discrete deterministic, stochastic, and continuous deterministic models.
- Use estimation as a modeling tool.
- Identify and analyze the problem statement, assumptions, model, results, and conclusions in existing models
- Frame a variety of problems for modeling, identifying assumptions, known quantities, and variables.
- Create and apply a model to solve a real world problem
- Test and refine a model, identifying new levels of resolution for a given problem.
- Write an accurate, informative, readable report communicating the problem, the modeling process, and the results.
