Brief Overview
The Human Systems Integration Certificate program is a distance learning, graduate-level, non-degree program designed to enable acquisition professionals, program managers, engineers and scientists of the DoD to effectively implement Human Systems Integration (HSI) as required by the DoD.
Students will learn the fundamentals in applying usability assessments, modeling, optimization, and decision making to demonstrate cost-benefit trade-offs for technical, cost, and schedule modifications in systems acquisition.
The program consists of four online courses taken over a 12-month period. The course content and projects address problems of interest to the DoD.
Requirements for Entry
Completion of DAU ACQ 101 and ACQ 201A.
Convenes
Fall
Program Length
Four quarters
Subspecialty Code
4600L
Outcomes
The goal of the Human Systems Integration Certificate Program is to acquaint HSI practitioners, HSI domain practitioners, Program Managers, Systems Engineers, Logisticians, and other Acquisition Professionals in the policies and processes for conducting HSI in DoN, DoD, and other Federal Agencies.
