Dassault Systèmes and Cranfield University Launch Applied MBSE Course to Address Key Skills Shortages in UK Aviation
November 20, 2024
Dassault Systèmes and Cranfield University have come together to launch their first-ever Applied Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) continuous professional development (CPD) course, seeking to address key skills shortages in the U.K. aviation industry.
This new program is designed to equip system engineers with essential MBSE mindsets and skillsets, addressing industry demands for enhanced methodologies in product development. Developed in collaboration with leading industry partners, the Applied MBSE course bridges the gap between theory and practice, ensuring attendees are prepared to tackle complex challenges in modern engineering.
MSBE is crucial for the future of U.K. aviation as original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) grapple with increasing product complexity and global collaboration requirements. The Applied MBSE course aims to fill the skills gap by providing up-to-date training that emphasises early error detection, collaboration enhancement, and cost reduction.
Learners will become proficient in Dassault Systèmes´ solutions such as CATIA applications and the 3DEXPERIENCE platform that allows OEMs and suppliers to view their shared projects in a virtual environment and handle everything from design and simulation to predicting supply bottlenecks and ultimately speeding up delivery times.
This marks a significant milestone in Dassault Systèmes and Cranfield University’s ongoing partnership, having already come together to establish a Centre of Excellence that was announced at the Paris Air Show in 2023 to drive future skills and innovation in the aerospace sector.
