Computation and simulation are cornerstones of modern practice across STEM; practitioners skilled in these areas can explore behaviours of real-world systems that would be impractical or impossible to undertake using only theoretical or experimental means. In this introductory unit, you will develop your computation and simulation skills through individual and collaborative problem-solving activities. Further exploration is available through the second major or minor in Computational and Simulation Science.","title-full":"MXB161 Computational Explorations","title-short":"Computational Explorations","url":{"current":"https://qutvirtual4.qut.edu.au/group/student/enrolment/units/unit?unitCode=MXB161&year=2025","prospective":"https://www.qut.edu.au/study/unit?unitCode=MXB161","timetable":"https://qutvirtual3.qut.edu.au/qvpublic/ttab_unit_search_p.process_teach_period_search?p_unit_cd=MXB161"},"year":2025,"years":[2024,2025]}
