Facets of Systems Science

Viac o knihe

The book explores the evolution of systems science education, sparked by a 1989 meeting between doctoral students and the department chairman at SUNY-Binghamton. The students, led by Cliff Joslyn, expressed concerns about their curriculum's lack of focus on the foundational aspects of systems science, including its historical context and future trajectory. They advocated for a comprehensive introductory course to better equip graduates to represent the field. The chairman acknowledged the need for change but highlighted the challenges in implementing it.
