Action POC Deadline Sponsor Dec 2011 Sponsor Dec 2011 Sponsor Mar 2012 Sponsor Mar 2012 SSAG PO Mar 2012 SSAG PO Sep 2012 SSAG PO Sep 2012 SSAG PO Sep 2012 Market a 24-month program matrix to Air Force and Army officers. SSAG PO Jun 2012 Market a 12-month degree matrix to Defense Contractors and NASA employees. SSAG PO Jun 2012 Reduce Bloom’s Taxonomy level to Knowledge/Comprehension for ESRs 2c, 2g, 3a,3b,and 5d. Draft ESRs for consideration to cover launch operations, to include coordination with launch facility and integration with the launch vehicle. Draft ESRs for consideration to cover specific Systems Engineering skills. Explore System Engineering degree option for 591 students. Develop, and insert into curriculum, Systems Engineering content. This content will support the new Systems Engineering ESR (13i) approved at the 2009 review Develop, and insert into curriculum, Space Ground Systems content. This content will support Ground Segment ESR (2c) approved at the 2009 review Develop and insert into curriculum, payload content for communications and optics to support the revised Payload Systems ESR (12d) approved at the 2009 review. 2 Action Item Update • Explore System Engineering degree option for 591 students. • Have begun discussions with SE Dept on this issue in order to finalize a matrix • Draft Matrix on next slide 3 591 Space Systems Engineering DRAFT 27-month Matrix SE Track Fall Entry 0S 1F 2W 3S 4S 5F 6W 7S 8S 9F MA2043 MA1115/6 PH1121 NW3230 Matrix Algebra Multi-Variable Calculus Mechanics Strategy & Policy PH1322 MA2121 AE2820 EC2820 Electromagnetism Differential Equations Spacecraft Structures Digital Logic Circuits SS3500 PH2514 MA3046 EC2300 Orbital Mechanics Space Environment Matrix Analysis Control Systems AE3815 EO2525 PH3052 SE3100 S/C Rotational Mechanics Probabilistic Analysis Remote Sensing Fund of SE AE3851 EO3525 PH3360 S/C Propulsion Communications Engineering EM Wave Propagation AE3804 AE3818 SE3250 SE4150 Thermal Control of S/C S/C ADC Capability Eng Sys Arch & Des SE3011 Eng Econ & Cost Est AE3870 SS3051 SS3001 SE0811 Computational Tools Space Systems & Operations Military Applications of Space Thesis Research AE4870 EC3230 SS3035 S/C Design & Integrations I Space Power Microprocessors for Space Sys Int & Dev SE4151 AE4871 SE4354 SE0811 NW3275 S/C Design & Integrations II Systems T&E Thesis Research JMO Part 1 Includes: • Integrated JPME • Degree Specialization • SECNAV Guest Lectures • SS4000 Lectures • Design Project Degree Options: • MS-Systems Engineering • MS-Astro • MS-Physics • MS-Electrical • MS-Mechanical • MS-Computer Science Entrance Requirement: • APC = 323 Academic Associate: CAPT Al Scott (ret) ?

This content will support the new Systems Engineering ESR (13i) approved at the 2009 review • AE3870 now includes lectures covering: • • AE3811 extensively covers: • • Overall SE process, requirements generation and analysis, technology readiness, the system design and development process and verification and validation test and evaluation processes for space systems A Systems Engineering short course is under initial development and is planned to be offered during Enrichment Week 5 Action Item Update • Develop, and insert into curriculum, Space Ground Systems content. This content will support Ground Segment ESR (2c) approved at the 2009 review • SS3035 is planned to have ground systems content including: • Ground system capabilities required to support tasking, command and control, data processing, and data storage • SS3500, SS3001 and SS3051 have already or will add ground systems content • We are looking at adding some ground systems content (SATCOM terminal capabilities, etc.) to one or both of the EO courses (EO2525 and EO3525) 6 Action Item Update • Develop and insert into curriculum, payload content for communications and optics to support the revised Payload Systems ESR (12d) approved at the 2009 review. • PH3052 • • Plan to cover EO payload info EO3525 & SS3035 • Plan to cover RF (COMM/SIGINT/SAR) payload info 7 Action Item Update • Market a 24-month program matrix to Air Force and Army officers. • • Ongoing efforts with USAF include primarily the Advanced Academic Degree (AAD) Program • Col Karl Eager (ret.), intends to continue to send at least 50% of their AAD officers to NPS • AFIT continues to provide for the remainder • Looking into re-instituting the Joint Space Academic Group (JSAG) The Army continues to support NPS • Now have MILFAC from USA • Primary interest is in SSO but some students do opt for SSE 8 Action Item Update • Market a 12-month degree matrix to Defense Contractors and NASA employees. • Fine tuning a 12-month program • This program will not satisfy P-Code requirements • Will include a thesis • Boeing continues to support with one student per year • Beginning discussions with NASA and other contractors: • Our NASA chair as well as guest speakers • Contacts at NGC and Lockheed • Can always use more POCs who can make the decision to send us students 9 SSO Action Items Action Item Assigned To Deliverable Due Date Letter to N15 w/enclosures formalizing ESRs LCDR Pratt CDR Unrein Letter 8 May Finalized SSO Matrix SSAG Matrix 1 May Tailored refresher plan VPAA, DOP Feasibility 1 Jul Removal of MN3331, new course or migrate to other existing courses (e.g. SS3041) SSAG Action Plan 1 May Plan to cover networks in EO4516 Prof. Loomis Action Plan 30 Sep Formalized and tasked Survey N2/N6 SSAG PO Survey 1 Jun Trade Study Thesis vs. Non-Thesis SSAG Recommendation 1 Oct Research suggestions that serve the Navy N2/N6 and others List of desired research topics 1 Jun Discussion of APC for 366 SSO entrance N2/N6 SSAG 334 APC to Admissions 1 May Operational relevance – Big Picture flow through curriculum (A2AD) N2/N6 SSAG Implementation of Themes into program 1 Sep SS3600 – look into incorporating into SS3001 & AE4831 SSAG N2/N6 Action Plan 1 May Update crosswalk and reversewalk LCDR Pratt Tables 20 Apr 10 Questions? 11
