Incorporating Learning Theory into Existing Systems Engineering Models

Abstract

Systems engineering and learning theories are two major disciplines that involve preparing people to solve problems. While learning theories and their elements are apparent in the field of systems engineering, limited work has been performed on the interactions and relationship between these two disciplines. This thesis aims to establish and discuss a relationship between systems engineering and learning theories over the key phases of a systems life cycle. This thesis discusses how organizations can use the information attained from the collaborative approach between systems engineering and learning theories to leverage practitioners work quality, capability, and decisions to help justify and improve key systems parameters.
