The Institute of Accounting and Management Control invites you to participate at the 4th ESSA Summer School at the Hamburg University of Technology. After three successful ESSA summer schools we want to continue giving introductions to agent-based modeling & simulation.

The ESSA summer school provides an introduction in research process, methods and tools for applying agent-based simulation in the social sciences. Lectures and tutorials from experts in the field are complemented by daily group discussions. By this, the understanding of the topics presented should be fostered. Furthermore, the group discussions provide the opportunity to progress in own simulation projects in a constructive atmosphere. To ensure the effectiveness, the participants are asked to state question they would like to solve within the summer school before the workshop.

After the summer school, participants can expect to have absorbed knowledge about simulation methodology.
