The Simulation Overview course teaches students the basic knowledge required to be successful within the training & simulation industry.
Simulation Overview examines the major components of a simulator from a top-level and describes how the components fit together to produce an immersive training solution. This course targets those who are new to simulator design and development as well as those who are more knowledgeable and are seeking a comprehensive view of the full training solution. General principles of simulation are studied in this class to include; common visual solutions, human-machine interfaces and aspects of simulation support such as concurrency, maintenance and security.
