The life-cycle cost of each alternative isdetermined based on the activity of estimation and prediction just completed.

The selection of preferredalternative(s) can only be made after the life-cycle cost analysis is completed and aftereffectiveness measures are defined and applied.

Schmidt [29] refers to the idea in the mid 1970’s but only as an author making use anexisting idea. In addition, this perspective, that affective domain development in relation to thecognitive material which is learned, that we are pursuing in systems engineering is a perspectivewhich has a long tradition in both theological education and military academies, where theobjective is to develop people who will behave rightly, not just people who know how to behaverightly.

University Ave., Little Rock, AR 72204Systems engineering is an interdisciplinary field of engineering that focuses on how to designand manage complex engineering systems over their life cycles. This study makes a case forintroducing core systems engineering concepts in undergraduate courses across engineeringdisciplines. We argue that rapid advances in technology, increasing complexity of engineeringprojects, lack of protection in a globalized world, and the pressures of

Industrial and Systems Engineering (ISyE) in Healthcare Although ISyE was lauded in the 2014 PCAST report, engineers worked for many decades to improve the healthcare system and establish a long term partnership with healthcare providers. In the 1980’s Donald Berwick, former President and CEO of the Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI), espoused that continuous improvement is a necessary solution to the ongoing problems in healthcare 2. During that decade, healthcare professionals observed an increasing amount of inefficiencies in the system which reinforced complexity and contributed to increasing costs. Two methods of improvement dominated the healthcare industry: 1) inspection and correction of problems and 2) continuous improvement

Some ofthese are described below; others are likely not useful or necessary in the specialized context of atradeoff study.
