What it covers
This unit provides an introduction to computational science through the design, analysis, and interpretation of models and simulations. It examines contrasting modelling approaches, including continuous and discrete, analytical and numerical, deterministic and stochastic, and static and dynamic models, and shows how these are used to study complex systems across a range of scientific domains. You will learn how to build, verify, visualise, and interpret computational models, and how to assess the implications of choosing one modelling approach over another. Through applied work with scientific computing tools, the unit develops the ability to use computation not only to implement solutions, but to investigate and understand systems that are difficult to analyse directly.
