Risk Modeling and Assessment

Catalog description

This course provides students with knowledge about the complete risk assessment process. It begins with in-depth discussions about the mathematical and computational models supporting risk assessment. Then, covers a variety of situations where risk can have a great impact, e.g. extreme events. Hierarchical holographic modeling and related models are used to analyze subsystem risks and how those risks compound to affect an entire system. (Prerequisites: MATH328, DATS301)
