FlexSim has been taught in hundreds of universities, both as the subject of full simulation courses and also as short course modules.
Professors who teach these courses expect that their FlexSim-related assignments will be completed with a high level of academic integrity. FlexSim has also been used for many capstone, thesis, and dissertation projects, all of which fall under the university’s academic honor code (or honor system).
FlexSim is committed to help maintain a high level of integrity in the academic assignments and projects that pass through our support department. We’ve created a list of guidelines for academic modeling using FlexSim:
Those Using FlexSim for Academic Purposes Can...
- Access our extensive product documentation (https://docs.flexsim.com)
- Utilize the FlexSim Primer (by Dr. Allen Greenwood), which is a great starting resource for learning FlexSim and was developed specifically for academia—download it at https://flexs.im/primer
- Access papers, videos, and other FlexSim-related documents that are publicly available
- Search the entire database of questions and answers that have been posted publicly on FlexSim Answers
FlexSim Will Not…
- Complete any portion of an assignment or project which falls under an academic honor code
- Write custom code as part of an academic assignment or project
- Share answers or model results from the textbook Applied Simulation: Modeling and Analysis Using FlexSim to anyone except educators teaching the material
- Otherwise aid in activities that circumvent the academic integrity of an assignment or project
