SAVE THE DATE!

Engineering Systems Symposium: June 15-17, 2009
Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Cambridge, Mass.


Dear Colleague:

Please save the date and join us for the second International 
Symposium on Engineering Systems at MIT from June 15-17, 2009. This 
three-day event will focus on the evolution of engineering systems 
approaches in research and education, providing attendees with a 
broad perspective on the latest advances in research, achievements in 
industry, and future challenges in the field. The event will include:
    o  Presentations and discussions on engineering systems research, 
education, and practice
    o  Two days of plenary sessions with speakers from industry, 
government, and academia; one day of concurrent research paper 
sessions
    o  Distinguished speakers including Charles M. Vest, president of 
the National Academy of Engineering and former president of MIT, and 
Norman Augustine, retired chairman and CEO of Lockheed Martin 
Corporation

If you work in an area of complex socio-technical systems, whether in 
academia, government, or industry, this symposium will provide you 
with broad exposure to the latest thinking from both academics and 
practitioners in the field. 

There will also be an open call for papers issued shortly. Online 
registration will be available after the New Year. Please visit 
http://esd.mit.edu/symp09 for more details.  (If this email was 
forwarded to you, please send an email to skoperni at MIT.EDU to 
directly receive the call for papers when it is issued.)

The Engineering Systems Symposium is sponsored by MIT's Engineering 
Systems Division (ESD) and the Council of Engineering Systems 
Universities (CESUN).  Co-sponsors include the International Council 
on Systems Engineering (INCOSE) and the Institute of Industrial 
Engineers (IIE). 

Please circulate this to interested colleagues.

Sincerely,

Daniel Roos
Founding Director, MIT Engineering Systems Division
