By taking part of this 2-week training course, you will gain a modelling culture and learn the different skills required for building agentg-based models applied to sociological, ecological or socio-ecological systems.

Taught by Prof. Dr. Petra Ahrweiler (Mainz University; president of ESSA) and Dr. Corinna Elsenbroich (Glasgow University), the course “Policy Modelling” focuses on the substantive problems, theories, and related computational models in a number of core areas of policy modelling. Participants learn to bridge the gap between policy practice and formal models by applying complexity-sensitive computational methods (especially agent-based modelling) using Netlogo and Python.

This online school aims to train students on Agent-Based Models (ABM) in NetLogo by using modelling examples from social science research. The course is ideally addressed to beginners but also mo[…]

Compute Canada’s WestGrid is moving its Research Computing Summer School online.

Volker Grimm and Steve Railsback will offer their 9th summer course in individual-based modeling at Humboldt State University, but this year the course will be a “boot camp” experience focused on the participants’ own modeling projects.

Companion Modelling (ComMod) is a participatory gaming and simulation approach that uses role-playing games and simulation models to tackle complex issues in the fields of renewable resources and[…]
