Great opportunity for new members to come meet and connect with fellow Chesapeake members. Treat your family to a day of informative fun! Join us for the INCOSE Chesapeake Chapter's College Park Aviation Museum event on: Saturday Aug 19 2023 at 10:00 - 11:00 AM.

We are planning the tour in place of our monthly meeting, so there will be no members meeting in August

Dr. Steve Biemer and other senior chapter members will be hosting a virtual training session on SEP certification. Our intent is to provide an interesting, insightful overview of the certification, the testing process, and key content elements for exam success.

Join us to celebrate the holidays by recognizing those achieving SEP certification, award member achievements, and acknowledge all those that have helped us in advancing Systems Engineering over the past year. This year we’ll be celebrating at The Engineers Club of Baltimore.

Don’t miss this excellent hybrid Training Opportunity. Saturday, 05 Nov 2022 (9:00 am – 4:00 pm). Instructor: Mike) Pafford — This interactive tutorial will provide a detailed introduction to an approach using the Lean Startup Method (LSM) and Agile (Agile SE, SWE, and PjM/PM) to conduct a stakeholder-centric elicitation and development of a set of system solution Initial Capabilities (ICs). Location: University of Maryland Baltimore County - University Center room 310 — as well as Virtual event.

Don’t miss this excellent Training Opportunity. Saturday, 22 October 2022 (9:00 am – 5:00 pm). This tutorial will introduce the student to the Object-Oriented Systems Engineering Method (OOSEM) and the Systems Modeling Language (SysML), which OOSEM uses to capture stakeholder needs, and system requirements, structure and behavior. Instructor: Howard Lykins, chair of the INCOSE Object-Oriented Systems Engineering Method Working Group, Location: University of Maryland Baltimore County - University Center room 310 — as well as Virtual event.

Great opportunity for new members to come meet and connect with fellow WMA and Chesapeake members. Treat your family to a night out of fun!

Aleksandra Scalco looks at the remediation of control system vulnerability due to discrepancies in engineering practice, paradigms, processes, and culture. Ms. Scalco considers a model and methodology for measuring multi-concern assurance through statistical uncertainty analysis of Likert semantic differential scales.

Casey Medina, President of Studio SE, Ltd., will explore the capabilities of the SysML tool Cameo in analyzing key aspects of the solution space and demonstrate key MBSE concepts and a robust, efficient process to explore full capabilities of SysML using the tool Cameo.

Paul Martin explains the demanding process of applying to the INCOSE Certified Systems Engineering Professional (CSEP) application, including filling out the formal application, the importance of finding at least three professional references, and how to prepare for the two-hour, 120-question, multiple-choice exam.

Zane Scott, ASEP, VP for Professional Services at Vitech Corporation, will facilitate this Interactive Workshop in order to provide you practical knowledge and skills that can make you a better, more persuasive, negotiator and equip you to better manage conflict from the position of a participant or mediator/facilitator whether at work or in your private life. It will cover the foundation and use of communication, influence, interest-based problem solving in personal and professional settings.

Mike Pafford, Past Chesapeake Chapter President, will facilitate this Interactive Workshop in order to provide attendees with knowledge and practice in using a facilitated hybrid approach for Initial Project Planning (IPP). The approach uses best practices from the Lean Startup Method (LSM) and Agile (Systems Engineering, Software Engineering, and Project Management). The approach is employed by bringing together project planners at the decision-making level in one or more collaborative and facilitated, “IPP Meetup Workshops”.

Even during this unprecedented year of challenges, we want to celebrate those who have helped us realize INCOSE's mission. And we want to honor those Systems Engineering Professionals who received their Certifications within the last twelve months. Celebrate with us live virtually at the Chapter’s Zoom Space

This event is canceled due to a new APL policy that has canceled all scheduled events for external organizations that use APL Facilities until April 12, 2020. We will reschedule Zane Scott for later in the year.

Meanwhile, take a look at our vast library of previously recorded lectures at our YouTube Channel

Architecture provides a unifying structure (or roadmap) for exploration of the problem space and for characterization of the solution space such that better decisions can be made about the system under development. Systems architecting when done well can improve the impact of the system solution.

This workshop will describe an approach for flowing down from enterprise goals and objectives, from the system purpose and mission needs, down through operational requirements and concept of operations, and finally into the capability, operational, system and project views of the architecture. These views are then used to develop a comprehensive set of requirements that best characterize and scope the system to be engineered.

Come celebrate the Holidays as we recognize those who have helped us realize INCOSE's mission to provide members with a wealth of knowledge. This year we’ll be celebrating at The Engineers Club of Baltimore.

All students enrolled in the MS Systems Engineering Programs are invited to take the INCOSE knowledge exam and get one step closer to INCOSE Certification at the ASEP or CSEP level. There is no cost to participate in this activity. Exam results will be emailed within a week following the exam.

Please join us to celebrate local INCOSE members who have earned the prestigious Systems Engineering Professional Certification at INCOSE Chesapeake Chapter’s 10th annual SEP Gala, at The Engineers Club of Baltimore.
