            Abstract : 
This panel considers the broad applicability of discrete event simulation analysis methodology to engineering design. A successful prototype multidisciplinary course, "Using Simulation Models for Engineering Design", is examined and discussed. Issues related to the implementation of such a course at other institutions are considered, for both graduate and undergraduate versions.
