Aim

The aim of the course is that the student will develop advanced knowledge on the uses, advantages, and limitations of agent-based modeling and simulation as a research method. The course enables the student to evaluate the feasibility and opportunities of this research paradigm as well as to gain skills and knowledge for applying agent-based modeling and simulation to their own research. This includes an in-depth understanding of relevant methods, approaches, and tools for developing agent-based models and simulations as well as the critical assessment of the models and simulation results published by others.
