succeed and “need to begrown via in-house training or experience” [Adcock et al., 2015]. For example, NASA developedthe Systems Engineering Leadership Development Program (SELDP) to provide “developmentactivities, training, and education” to more quickly cultivate systems engineers [Ryschkewitch etal., 2009].Universities have responded to the growing market demand for systems engineers in a range ofways, from adding or further emphasizing elements of systems engineering to existing courses(e.g., capstone design courses; see Chaput [2016]), to creating entire programs in systemsengineering (e.g., Stevens Institute of Technology). How effective are these efforts, how can theybe improved, and, can we identify a set of best practices in doing such

The Director of FacultyDevelopment is the Program Leader, responsible for overall execution of the program. Thesupport staff member researches best practices, develops measuring tools for data collection, andtracks program progress by analyzing the data collected from the measuring tools. FacultyPosition A and Faculty Position B are voluntary advisory roles on the committee. These facultyrepresentatives are drawn from the Faculty Development Advisory Council. The two facultymembers selected represent both military and civilian faculty, with one member from eachcategory. The faculty selected for the committee are both experienced professors

explicit ‘Body of Knowledge’ (BOK) to offer a standard set of terms,definitions, and concepts that are accepted by the professionals of that discipline. Such efforts tocreate and maintain a BOK are usually driven by the internationally recognized professionalbody for that discipline. Examples of two such BOKs are the Software Engineering Body ofKnowledge (SWEBOK) [1] developed by the IEEE Computer Society, and The Guide to theSystems Engineering Body of Knowledge (SEBoK) [2] co-developed by INCOSE, IEEEComputer Society, and Systems Engineering Research Center (SERC). Some disciplines usetheir professional societies and other bodies of practicing engineers to publish and maintainhandbooks, standards, codes, etc. that form the body of knowledge or
