Course Overview

The Virtual Scientific Simulation Development Training by Open Source is designed for research software engineers, computational scientists, and simulation developers seeking to master the creation of high-fidelity digital models for scientific inquiry. This course prepares candidates for the Professional Simulation Engineer (PSE) Certification at the Standard level, a credential recognized by NAFEMS as a benchmark for competency in simulation and modeling. Ideal for roles such as Scientific Software Developer, HPC Simulation Analyst, and Research Software Engineer, the program addresses a growing industry demand—88% of hiring managers, according to the Linux Foundation, prioritize open source certifications when evaluating candidates. Participants gain a structured pathway to contribute meaningfully to large-scale simulation projects while aligning with FAIR principles and open-source best practices.

Students engage with a robust suite of open-source tools including FEniCS, PETSc, TRILINOS, SU2, preCICE, and Docker, mastering their integration within virtualized environments such as VirtualBox and Vagrant. The hands-on lab component, conducted in a dedicated Linux-based virtual machine, challenges learners to build, test, and contribute to real-world simulation software packages. A core project involves configuring a fluid-structure interaction simulation by coupling OpenFOAM and CalculiX using preCICE, complete with mesh generation, parallel execution, and performance analysis. Through GitHub Actions and GitLab CI/CD, students implement continuous integration workflows, while also packaging software using CMake, CPack, and Spack to ensure reproducibility and deployment across HPC systems.

This training directly supports certification as a Professional Simulation Engineer (PSE), a globally recognized credential that validates expertise in simulation development and enhances career credibility. Certified professionals earn, on average, 20% more than non-certified peers, with strong demand in aerospace, energy, and biomedical research sectors. Koenig Solutions strengthens this path with Guaranteed-to-Run live online sessions, 1-on-1 training options, and official courseware, ensuring learners receive structured, expert-led instruction. Graduates emerge equipped to lead simulation initiatives, contribute to open-source scientific software, and drive innovation in research and industrial applications.
