Scope
Cadets learn how to use information and technology in support of systems decision-making. They learn how to manipulate data in spreadsheets as well as through a computer language (R) to support decisions. The course introduces cadets to several types of exploratory data analysis to include numeric, text, relational, and geospatial. Cadets learn how to manage analysis in both the traditional and cloud environments, as well as the tradeoffs associated with working in each. Communication skills are developed through both written and oral projects and development of interactive graphical presentations. Cadets will spend most lessons in a computer lab environment.

Cadets learn how to create, collect, manipulate, and analyze data in numerical and graphical forms to enhance problem solving, systems design, decision making, and engineering management processes. The course places considerable emphasis on the use of the computer as a tool in the Systems Engineering Management Process. In doing this, cadets have the opportunity to become more powerful computer users, and develop effective strategies for life-long learning of sophisticated computer tools, applications, and technology. With a view toward the future, cadets also survey emerging technologies that will impact on systems engineering and management. Ethical implications in the development and application of computer models are addressed and students learn how to effectively use technology while interacting with decision-makers. Communication skills are developed through both written and oral projects and development of interactive graphical presentations. Cadets will spend twenty-five to thirty lessons in a computer lab environment.
