This study applies the methodology of systems dynamics to analyze engineering and engineering technology education systems. A preliminary system analysis is presented relating primary variables and their interaction in the overall system through a series of feedback loops. This is followed by a system structure development and mathematical…

The major systems development projects of the 1960's were concerned primarily with facility problems at the elementary and secondary levels. Rapidly increasing enrollments coupled with changes in both curriculum and in teaching methods created a demand for more flexible facilities that could be constructed rapidly and inexpensively. The success of…

This document is an extract of EA 004 095 which reports a yearlong study of possible benefits in cost, time, and facility utilization of a systems building approach for Texas college and university construction. (Photographs on pages 7,8,9, and 13 may reproduce poorly.) (Author)

This document reports a yearlong study of possible benefits in cost, time, and facility utilization of a systems building approach for Texas college and university construction. The first part of the report deals with trends and needs in higher education and the related architectural implications. A subsequent discussion of alternative building…

This newsletter details the efforts of the University of Alaska to develop a systems approach that will provide facilities for higher education in a State with an area more than three and one half times that of New Jersey, Florida, and Oregon combined. The problem involved in providing appropriate facilities in a State such as Alaska are…
