  2. Summary • There are a number of activities underway at JSC in Systems Engineering Development. • JSC Space Systems Engineering Development Program (SSEDP) • Centerwide Curriculum Strategy/APPEL Systems Engineering Training • Academia/University Activities • JSC Engineering Academy

  3. JSC Space Systems Engineering Development Program (SSEDP) • 18 month development program beginning in October 2008 • 26 students competitively selected from Engineering, Program Offices, and Project Offices. Target audience is employees who are 1-2 years from serving in a lead systems engineering role on a major project (Orion, EVA, etc.) • Curriculum partnership with Stevens Institute of Technology • Surveyed and benchmarked other Centers’ SE development programs • - Goddard Spaceflight Center – Systems Engineering Education Development (SEED) • - Glenn Research Center – Space Mission Excellence Program (SMEP) • - Ames Research Center – Ames Project Excellence Program (APEX) • - Jet Propulsion Laboratory – Systems Engineering Advancement (SEA)

  4. JSC Systems Engineering Curriculum

  5. JSC Systems Engineering Behavioral and Leadership Competencies

  6. JSC Systems Engineering Technical Acumen and Processes

  7. Academy of Program/Project& EngineeringLeadership (APPEL) • APPEL provides core and in-depth systems engineering training for JSC and other Centers. • In FY ‘08, JSC conducted 8 APPEL Systems Engineering courses with total participation of 183 employees • Anticipated APPEL Systems Engineering courses for FY ‘09: • - Decision Analysis • - Requirements Development & Management • - Fundamentals of Systems Engineering • - Developing & Implementing a Systems Engineering Management Plan • - Space Launch and Transportation Systems • - Transition, Product Delivery, and Mission Operations • - Space System Verification & Validation • - Concept Exploration and System Architecting

  8. Academia/Universities • Stevens Institute of Technology Pilot (2007-2008) • Participated in Space Systems Engineering Graduate Certificate and Masters Programs targeted for space systems applications • (8 participants) • Very well received for a number of factors including quality of instructors with real-world experience and expertise in space domain, curriculum content and format, and APPLICATION of classroom training to on-the-job projects. • University of Texas • Providing input into curriculum for Master’s in System Design • Systems Engineering capability needs assessment underway to determine SE skills needed to be incorporated into graduate and undergraduate programs in Systems Engineering (i.e. University of Houston, UT) • Other Academic Pilot Programs • Participated in pilot program at University of Southern California • (15 participants) • Participated in pilot program at California Institute of Technology • (24 participants)
