Each course offering is co-taught by two or more of the instructors below.

Get started in the context of model-based engineering (MBE) in general, and model-based systems engineering (MBSE) in particular. Learn the essentials of OMG SysML, a general-purpose modeling language for developing complex systems composed of hardware, software, information, personnel, procedures, and/or facilities, that is independent of any particular SysML tool, with a focus on how to read and understand SysML models that other people have created.

• Engineers
• Scientists
• Managers
• Technicians

• Recognize the various types of SysML diagrams and understand their essential constructs
• Apply this knowledge in your day-to-day work
• Learn about role of SysML in MBE/MBSE, including how SysML supports the systems engineering “Vee” model and what you can do with a SysML model
• Discover the benefits and costs of a SysML-based MBE/MBSE approach
• Create a plan to deploy SysML technology in your organization

• MBE/MBSE Context & Motivation
• Structure Concepts
• Behavior Concepts
• Cross-Cutting Concepts
• Applications

Participants will receive the course notes (hardcopy and digital) and the book, A Practical Guide to SysML by Friedenthal, Moore, and Steiner.

• Chris Paredis
• Dirk Zwemer
• Leon McGinnis
• Manas Bajaj
• Russell Peak

This course is an elective course for the:

• Modeling & Simulation Certificate
