Magpie's
Courses
Magpie
offers a
range of technical courses that have been very successfully delivered
to a range of audiences both in Australia and overseas.
All
of the courses can be tailored (expanded, summarized, or focused)
to the specific needs of your organization, or simply delivered as is.
The courses are run periodically throughout each year and are also run
“as-required and in-house” for a number of clients
in
Australia and overseas.

Systems Engineering
Systems Engineering is concerned with
understanding and solving complex technical problems in a rigorous and
methodical fashion.
Magpie offers a 3-day course as an
introduction to the processes,
management, tools and related disciplines associated with systems
engineering. The course can be tailored to meet specific organizational
requirements or delivered “off the shelf”.
Magpie also facilitates a 3.5-day systems engineering workshop dominated by hands-on exercises and discussions.
Both the course and the workshop is supported by the following text:
R.I. Faulconbridge & M.J. Ryan, Engineering a
System: Managing Complex Technical Projects, Argos Press,
Canberra, 2005.

Radar Systems
Radar systems are able to detect,
track, and sometimes classify targets
in a variety of conditions including darkness. They are employed
extensively as military sensors, but also play important roles in
civilian air traffic control, border protection, and law enforcement.
This topic can be covered as a 3-day course or facilitated workshop. It is designed for non-technical people who are involved
with radar systems and for engineers who need an introduction. As with
our other courses, it can be delivered “off the
shelf” or
in a tailored form.
The course is supported by the following text:
R.I.
Faulconbridge, Radar
Fundamentals, Argos Press, Canberra, 2002.
Avionics Systems
The term
“Avionics” is the combination of two words:
aviation and electronics. It is a broad discipline covering areas like
electrical generation, airborne sensor systems, flight control,
navigation, communication and cockpit systems.
This
3-day course or workshop is designed to give an introduction and framework to
this ever-evolving field. It has been designed to support a system
level understanding of avionics systems for both technical and
non-technical people. It can be tailored to meet the individual needs
of your organization or can be delivered “off the
shelf”.
This course is supported by the following text:
R.I.
Faulconbridge, Avionics
Principles, Argos Press, Canberra, 2007.
