Curriculum

IDRE is working to coordinate curriculum development across campus in the areas of computation and simulation. Early efforts are focusing on identifying existing classes in these areas, and looking for ways to enhance these courses and make them available to students in other disciplines. IDRE-HASIS is currently supporting the Keck Digital Cultural Mapping Program, an undergraduate curricular sequence housed in the UCLA Humanities Division.
