Access to Space for All: Systems Engineering
MOOC (Online) by UNOOSA and NASA · Free (~£0)
To support future potential Access to Space for All applicants and to provide free and accessible educational content to all, the United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA) in collaboration with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is organizing a webinar series on Systems Engineering. The four-part webinar series will take place between November 2023 and January 2024. Each webinar will last one hour and consist of presentations and question and answer (Q&A) sessions. Only a limited number of applicants will be invited to join the live interactive sessions, where the participants will have the opportunity to directly engage with NASA experts. Given the relatively short duration of the course, NASA personnel will provide resources for reading materials prior to each webinar so participants can prepare for each session and maximize their experience. Two weeks after each webinar, the presentations and recordings will become accessible to everyone on this website.

Applied Model-Based Systems Engineering
Short course (Online) by TSTI · POA
This 3-4 day tailorable course provides a broad introduction to the what, why and how of the processes, practices, tools and techniques that comprise the emerging discipline of model-based systems engineering (MBSE). The course makes extensive use of “learn by doing” through hands-on exercises. The focus is on six central themes that comprise the unique advantages MBSE offers—Capturing, Connecting, Controlling, Communicating, Collaborating and Cycling. The current state of modeling languages (UML, SYSML, LML, and others), ontologies, architectural frameworks and tools are examined. From this foundation, the course then focuses on examining each key part of systems engineering–Design, Manage, and Realize. Participants are guided through how to build a system model “from scratch” leveraging design patterns and other techniques. A “graduation exercise” asks participants to build their own model for a system of their choice. With over 3,000 alumni, this course is designed for practicing systems engineers, payload principle investigators, subsystem engineers or project managers involved with any phase of the space mission life cycle who are curious about application of MBSE to their projects.

Integrated CubeSAT Engineering Workshop
Short course (Online) by TSTI · POA
This 4 or 5 day tailorable course examines the application of Systems Engineering tools and techniques that will provide participants with the necessary skills, industry standards, information, and tools necessary to plan and implement a credible CubeSat Development Program. Emphasis is on practice over theory using a fully-functional (hardware and software) desktop (non-flight) CubeSat as the system of interest. Using the 3U EssentialSAT (ESat) desktop satellite, the course follows the progression of a hypothetical CubeSat mission – NanoMet-2 – designed to deliver large scale meteorological imagery from LEO. NanoMet-2 serves as an end-to- end systems engineering and project management training platform to examine issues that develop during each phase of a project lifecycle. The course is organized along the the lines of a real space mission, starting with Pre-Phase A concept development and then progressing from Phase A to D, introducing systems engineering artifacts that would be developed at each major milestone and providing hands-on examples using the NanoMet mission. NanoMet, based on the ESat platform, is designed to conform to the 3U CubeSat standard in terms of form and fit and includes all standard spacecraft bus functions (power, data handling, communication, and attitude determination and control). All hardware was designed to be for use around the world and is “ITARfree,” (it is not space qualified or even qualifiable). Participants are provided with key lectures and resources including design tools and model-based systems engineering (MBSE). Through a variety of in-class exercises and hands-on activities they will learn by doing. This course is designed for systems engineers, project managers, integrated product team members involved with any aspect of system engineering and analysis, especially design and development, test and evaluation CubeSats.
Applied Space Systems Engineering
Short course (Online) by TSTI · POA
This 3-5 day tailorable course examines the practical application of systems engineering processes throughout the product life cycle. The course is aimed at practical, hands-on application of systems engineering tools and processes that can be realistically applied within your project environment to produce effective systems. Using a combination of lectures, interactive discussions and group exercises, the course presents a detailed review of all major systems engineering processes within three major categories: Design, Realization and Systems Engineering Management. A detailed end-to-end system case study is used to translate theory to practice by illustrating detailed how-to examples for achieving and establishing each major technical baseline throughout the mission life cycle. This course is designed for systems engineers, payload principle investigators, subsystem engineers or project managers involved in any phase of the product life cycle.
