A generic interactive package for system engineering courses and applications (GIPSECA).

Objectives

Research into the development of a teaching scheme for integration of a number of engineering disciplines under the generic theme of System Engineering, and - design and implement an interactive and networked multimedia package for use in academia and industry.

Description

The detailed objectives of the project are: - Provide a standard for teaching and training of Systems Engineering for implementation on a wide scale within Europe and the Mediterranean region - Conduct extensive discussions and collaborative interchange of ideas to ensure the applicability and the generic nature of the package as a standard at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels. - The design and implementation of an interactive networked package based on being used on the Internet and on CD-ROM, to cater for complex multimedia actions. - The package may be used in conjunction with existing teaching schemes (e.g. distance learning) or for o-site training for individuals in industry. - Seek the advice and active involvement of industry. - Conduct analytical studies and workshops/seminars during the period to disseminate results and ensure operation within acceptable European, regional and national standards. - Implement a pilot system, linking different institutions in the consortium.
