Curriculum

The PMASE curriculum includes six Core courses and four courses in a Complex Systems Track Sequence. All courses offer three semester hours of credit for a total of 30 program hours for completion of the degree.

The six Core courses include:

• ASE 6001 - Introduction to Systems Engineering
• ASE 6004 - Leading Engineering Teams
• ASE 6002 - Systems Design and Analysis
• ASE 6003 - Systems Modeling and Optimization
• ASE 6005 - Systems Modeling with SysML
• ASE 6006 - Systems Engineering Laboratory

The Complex Systems Track Sequence includes four courses:

• ASE 61X1 – Analysis and Synthesis (Elective)
• ASE 6102 – Systems of Systems and Architectures
• ASE 6103 – Lifecycle and Integration
• ASE 6104 – Complex System Capstone Project

This sequence begins with a domain elective, ASE 61X1. Elective choices include:

• ASE 6101 - Vehicle Systems Analysis and Synthesis
• ASE 6111 - Sensor Systems Analysis and Synthesis
• ASE 6121 - Information Systems Analysis and Synthesis
• ASE 6131 - Human Systems Integration Analysis and Synthesis

It is followed by two more courses that will allow you to apply additional methods, tools, and techniques to your chosen domain and to secondary domains.

The Capstone Project is the final course in the sequence. This experiential workshop integrates what you have learned in the program through a complex system conceptual design. Projects are designed to fit the particular needs for your job, your industry, and your career.
