| Summary: | A university level course in systems analysis with close contact and massive use of computer time was designed. The objectives of the course were primarily to teach social science graduate students, mostly from economics and agricultural economics, the basic methodological and quantitative tools of systems analysis and design. It was designed to show that the task of teaching principles of systems analysis and its applications to students with no programing background can be achieved using high level simulation language like CSMP/360. Stochastic situations represented by Monte-Carlo simulation were designed in FORTRAN with some preprogramed segments given to the students. An example of such an assignment is provided.
