Teaching and Research at M.I.T. go hand in hand.
In the Fall 2001 I am co-teaching 16.882/ESD.34J System Architecture with Prof. Edward Crawley, Department Head Aeronautics and Astronautics. The following is the course description from the on-line catalogue:

Covers principles and methods for technical System Architecture. Presents a synthetic view including: the resolution of ambiguity to identify system goals and boundaries; the creative process of mapping form to function; and the analysis of complexity and methods of decomposition and re-integration. Industrial speakers and faculty present examples from various industries. Heuristic and formal methods are presented.

16.882/ESD.34J SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE SYLLABUS
A course syllabus is available here in pdf format. Note that the course is administered via the command system which is only accessible to officially registered MIT students.

For Spring 2002 I am putting together a new offering:
16.9XX/ESD.XXJ Multidisciplinary Design Optimization (MDO) 3-0-9 units planned for Spring 2002, needs to be approved by ESD Committee this Fall. Proposal in preparation.

16.68X SPACE SYSTEMS PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT
Link to a CDIO (Conceive-Design-Implement-Operate)
project class, that I supported as a Teaching Assistant (TA) during my last year as a student. The objective is to demonstrate the feasibility of modular optics by building and operating a Golay-3 telescope system. The project is called ARGOS and is led by Prof. David Miller.
