Abstract

The Rockwell International-Collins Avionics Divisions are developing an avionics systems engineering graduate program with Iowa State University. The author discusses the proposed curriculum and the four avionics systems engineering courses that will be offered. The four courses are: Systems Engineering and Analysis, Avionics Systems Engineering, System Project Management, and Software Systems Engineering. The Systems Engineering and Analysis course introduces system engineering concepts and principles. The second course applies the system engineering techniques presented in the first course to avionics. Current avionics functions are presented and then used to discuss avionics systems. The third course discusses avionics systems engineering from the project management viewpoint. The Software Systems Engineering course examines the systems aspect of software
