They concluded that the three main barriers were lack of accreditation processimprovement, conventional thinking of some faculty members and company expectations andrecruiting trends.

to the attendant problems andchallenges of the profession. Relevant, responsive, and adaptive curriculum development is thebest approach to achieving an integrated delivery of education.In this paper, we suggest the application of a systems approach to curriculum development,particularly where normally dichotomous disciplines are involved, such as engineering andaerospace medicine. A systems-based view of a robust curriculum permits the inclusion of all (ormost) of the facets attendant in each of the collaborating disciplines. Systems thinking is, thus,essential for integrating curriculum elements. Traditionally, a system is defined as the collectionof interrelated elements whose collective output (or result) is higher than the sum of

Even though some programshave introduced systems engineering concepts in freshman or sophomore courses, there is noevidence of continuity in multiple courses in every year across the curriculum, with students gettingseldom systems engineering exposure in course during the first three years of their curriculum.The paper discusses the developed modules that will give students an initial exposure to the field ofsystems engineering as it applies to aerospace vehicles, while students in freshman year experiencenon-aerospace engineering projects as well.

In the kind of curriculum being planned at theinstitution of one of the writers, teaching and learning in first-year learning communities willinvolve skills, content and disciplinary courses, all building upon one another.Learning communities in Engineering Economics coursesThere are several ways in which learning communities can be integrated into engineering andengineering technology programs. For example, an Engineering Economics course may bepaired with a Statistics course where both include some integrative assignment(s) applyingstatistical concepts to engineering economics problems; these assignments reinforce learning inboth subjects.

reading documents and gathering data.The second step, study of alternatives, is an important part of the systems engineering philosophythat is rooted in methods. Most books appear partial to decision analysis (Hazelrigg11) andprobabilistic tools, e.g., probability trees, (Sage and Armstrong22). At least one chapter in eachbook appears to be devoted to this topic. The third step revolves around integrating all systemcomponents and launching the system. The fourth step is testing the performance of the system.The fourth step relies on techniques from operations research, e.g., queuing theory for discrete-event stochastic systems and scoring methods and objective function formulation etc. The finalstep essential captures the principle of continuous

In contrast, the lack of an integrative systemic engineering knowledgelimits the vision of US engineers in the leadership of sustainable development.Sustainable development requires engineering engagement in policy making, risk analysis, anddisaster management.

isinterested in integrating SE Design into their course. Therefore, our 1st recommendation is tostart off with a singular focus on engineering discipline capstone learning objectives includinglevels of SE knowledge required for today's projects, most of which are multi-disciplinary.When you are satisfied with the learning objectives, superimpose curriculum and facility/facultyconstraints that limit course content and structure. Then within the constraints including credithours and semester schedule, functionally define what you think would be one or more idealprojects that satisfy your SE Design learning objectives. Generalize the results in the form ofproject selection criteria and then and only then start looking for company or organizationsponsored
