Computer-based simulation is one of the most powerful tools available today to support problem solving and analyze complex systems. The IEOM Student Simulation Competition is an international simulation competition hosted by the Industrial Engineering and Operations Management Society that provides students with an opportunity to demonstrate their problem-solving, presentation, and discrete-event simulation modeling and analysis skills.
IEOM Competition Rubrics
- Overall content: 1-5 points
- Data analysis and results: 1-5 points
- Presentation skills: 1-5 points
- Knowledge of the topic / confident: 1-5 points
