System Dynamics Online Postgraduate University Course

PLAN OF STUDY

The Politechnic University of Catalonia - UPC - has a solid reputation in higher learning and research, and is a dynamic university in constant evolution. As such, the University offers online courses to serve English-speaking students who are interested in taking courses in System Dynamics.

Online courses are an excellent opportunity to access postgraduate education, as the student may access the course on the student's own time, at his own pace, and minimizing the loss of work hours.

Additionally, it has been noted that this online course gives excellent results because the student is very closely monitored in his learning process by the course professor.

The student receives the documentation of the course and the simulation software Vensim PLE at home. Throughout his progress in the course, he receives by e-mail instruction with study cases and exercises to complete. The student then submits the models he creates to the professor by e-mail. The professor is available to the student in this capacity for any help the student needs during his studies.

Because of this very close relationship between the professor and the student his progress is continuously monitored through the completion of the different exercises and study cases.
