Human Capital Development
From our very first research task, which resulted in the Systems Engineering Body of Knowledge (SEBoK), SERC research continues to contribute directly to human capital development. SERC helps the DoD develop its current and future workforce with advanced technical and employability skills.
Featured projects include the Helix assessment to understand what makes systems engineers effective, a digital engineering simulator for Defense Acquisition University, the Capstone Marketplace, and more.
