Welcome to the first SERC Updates of 2023. This issue features research we are conducting in digital engineering, MBSE, and more. A highlight is the new Archimedes Initiative, an international partnership announced in a special issue of INCOSE INSIGHT.  

Our network is eager for CSER 2023 on March 16-17. We encourage you to register and engage with us during the conference at Stevens Institute of Technology. You will find several other interesting events this spring listed below. 

We have carried momentum from a productive 2022 to a busy 2023, and we look forward to keeping you informed about the latest in systems engineering research. 

Sincerely,
Dinesh Verma
Executive Director [/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row el_id=”research”][vc_column][vc_empty_space][vc_single_image image=”15025″ img_size=”large”][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/5″][vc_single_image image=”17702″ img_size=”full” onclick=”custom_link” img_link_target=”_blank” link=”https://sercuarc.org/transforming-systems-engineering-through-model-based-systems-engineering/”][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”4/5″][vc_column_text]
