described as a complex systems engineeringproblem. In practice, however, security systems engineering presents challenges not normallyfaced in more traditional systems engineering problems. For example, the talent necessary todevelop effective systems requires the assembly of teams of experts from very diverse fields,ranging from mathematicians to specialists in languages and cultures. In addition, securitysystems must be capable of continuous and rapid evolution to respond to changing scenarioscaused by new and evolving threats. A systems engineering methodology developed and testedat the United States’ national laboratories over the last forty years, known as the Sandiamethodology, effectively addresses the unique aspects of security system

electromechanical principles through studying the mechanics and electronic controlof these components. They discuss the nature of the product, the design principles andconstraints used, the material selection, and the manufacturing processes. The IME-100 courseincludes IME laboratories where freshman students learn to perform basic manufacturingprocesses. These processes provide them the skills necessary to manufacture a RoboBug. TheIME-100 course also has an ECE laboratory component where freshmen students build a circuitto be placed on a small robot. The robot is then used in the course to demonstrate systemintegration and simple programming in an effort to coordinate a walking motion
