Who We Are

Modeling and Simulation Knights (MaSK) represents the local SCS student chapter at UCF, focused on organizing activities to disseminate and acquire knowledge of the theory and practice of all aspects of modeling and simulation.

The members of the SCS Student Chapter at UCF are students at the University of Central Florida (UCF), enrolled in the School of Modeling, Simulation, and Training graduate programs. Our faculty advisor is Dr. Bruce Caulkins. Mask gives members the opportunity to further their professional goals by encouraging members to collaborate, network, and socialize between students, faculty, and professionals within the research community.
