About the unit CITS4403 Computational Modelling (2nd semester 2023)

View the UWA Handbook entry (includes unit outcomes and prerequisites)

Unit description:

This unit explores current research topics in computational modelling. Students develop skills to identify problems, formulate solutions and conduct further research in open questions in this domain.

Unit outcomes:

Students are able to (1) communicate effectively to present computational models to address a given research hypothesis and qualify the limitations of these models; (2) analyse and discuss current open research topics in the field of computational modelling; (3) explain the concepts and technologies used in the field of computational modelling; and (4) design, apply and analyse relevant technologies to solve problems in the field of computational modelling.
