About the short course
In an increasingly digital world, having the capability to design, integrate and sustain systems of-systems of scale (a process called Digital Mission Engineering) is crucial to the success of large enterprises.
In order to equip businesses to meet their ever-growing operational and systematic needs, the University of Canberra has partnered with Kompozition to offer a unique short course: Foundations in Digital Mission Engineering.
Designed for those with both a technical and non-technical background, this course provides individuals with the foundational theory, skills and knowledge to work effectively within a Mission Engineering process, emphasizing the use of advanced simulation and modelling techniques.
Over the course of five days, participants will explore the core concepts of Digital Mission Engineering, including systems integration, digital twins, virtual environments and how these connect with the Commonwealth of Australia’s Digital Engineering Strategy 2024.
Participants will also be introduced to Kompozition’s digital mission engineering platform, which uses a single, integrated digital thread to represent a whole system of interest, allowing the design, acquisition, integration, assurance and sustainment of fit-for-mission capability.
Applying what you learn to real-world scenarios, you’ll gain skills that will help you both personally and professionally.
Who this course is for
- Professionals who are involved in supporting large enterprises in developing (or assuring the development of) enterprise-level systems that are fit for mission, purpose, and use.
- Operators, subject matter experts, technical experts, operational analysts, engineers, architects looking to expand their knowledge of emerging digital technologies and their application in mission-critical environments.
Learning outcomes
After successful completion of this course, students will be able to:
- Understand the role and importance of mission engineering within the Commonwealth of Australia’s Digital Engineering Strategy 2024.
- Articulate a working understanding of the knowledge concepts and processes required for effective mission engineering.
- Apply practical skills using the Kompozition platform to create and maintain mission and systems engineering models, capturing and linking these concepts.
- Integrate systems engineering principles with digital mission concepts to improve mission outcomes.
- Collaborate effectively within multidisciplinary teams to solve complex engineering challenges.

Dr Dan Powell, PhD
Kompozition
As co-founder and R&D Lead at Kompozition, Dr Dan Powell applies experience in solving complex problems to the development and application of the Kompozition platform, enabling capability owners to describe and understand the expected and actual behaviour of integrated systems of systems, accelerating and de-risking capability definition, acquisition and sustainment.
Dan has a PhD from Griffith University where he studied under Professor Geoff Dromey - the developer of Behaviour Modelling Language that serves at core of the Kompozition platform.
