Model Systems in Motion and Change
What happens to a vehicle when it accelerates, turns, or encounters an uneven road? How do mechanical and electrical components interact inside a complex machine? Even something so common as human movement can be studied as a system whose behavior changes over time.
Dynamic systems is the study of how interconnected parts respond to forces, inputs, and changing conditions. In this field, engineers use mathematical models and simulations to predict that behavior, test designs, and better understand complex mechanical and electromechanical systems.
Michigan Tech’s on-campus and online Dynamic Systems Graduate Certificate helps you build a foundation in analytical mechanics, mathematical modeling, and simulation. Develop skills for analyzing dynamic behavior and using computational models across mechanical engineering applications.
