FS-F04 — Uncertainty and Complexity

About Course

Course Code: FS-F04

Cluster: Foundations

Level: Level 100

Working rigorously with uncertainty and complex systems.

Course Content

Certainty, Risk, and Uncertainty
Distinguishing what we can quantify from what we genuinely cannot know.

Assessment Preparation

Systems Thinking Fundamentals
Seeing the world as interconnected systems rather than isolated parts.

Nonlinearity, Tipping Points, and Emergence
Why complex systems change suddenly and produce genuine novelty.

Scenarios as a Tool for Uncertainty
Using structured scenarios to prepare for a range of plausible futures.

Robustness, Resilience, and Adaptability
Designing decisions that hold up when the future refuses to cooperate.

Communicating Uncertainty Honestly
Conveying what we do and do not know without false confidence or paralysis.
