To further its goals, CSCS supports a number of activities. These
include a weekly seminar series, research workshops, an annual
symposium on complex systems, designed for a general academic
audience, and an annual adaptive systems workshop in collaboration
with the Santa Fe Institute.
CSCS also sponsors a series of interdisciplinary research interest groups. The Center also supports,
in whole or in part, a variety of research projects dealing with
complex systems in a diverse set of fields.
CSCS provides a computer lab which provides software for modeling
and analyzing complex systems. The computer lab offers regular
workshops as well as consulting on the use of supported software, and
is the site for much of the research done under the auspices of the
Center. The lab is also used by students in CSCS-related courses.
Through the Horace H. Rackham School of Graduate Studies, CSCS also
offers a graduate curriculum in complex systems leading to a Graduate
Certificate in Complex Systems. This is an interdisciplinary graduate
program designed to familiarize students with the ideas and methods of
complex systems. There also are courses of study appropriate
for undergraduate students.
CSCS also supports an Academic Business Consortium,
a group consisting of
faculty associated with the
UM Center for the Study of Complex Systems (CSCS) and
scientists, managers and executives from
South-Eastern Michigan area who share a joint
interest in developing increasing understanding of complex systems.
