Welcome to the Atlanta Chapter

The Atlanta Chapter was formed in 2005 through the efforts of several local Atlanta INCOSE members with the help of South Carolina and Alabama members. The chapter has been active, earning Silver and Bronze Circle Awards almost every year. The chapter continues to stay actively engaged in INCOSE and the broader Systems Engineering community today.

We meet monthly for talks, workshops, socials, and to discuss the state of Systems Engineering on a national level. Our normal meeting location is Kennesaw State University in Marietta, or Georgia Tech in Atlanta. The Chapter membership is made up of representatives from Aerospace, Energy, Academia, Government to name a few. Our members range from college undergraduates to seasoned veterans of Systems Engineering.

Atlanta September 2021 Meeting Information

Abstract:
The INCOSE 2021 International Symposium was a virtual event broadcast on
Zoom. It was a full Symposium (Mon-Thu) with daily Plenaries, Paper
Presentations, Panels, and Tutorials. The theme was “Accelerating through
Adversity” which was of course a reference to the global pandemic. My objective
will be to give you a taste of what I saw and encourage you to participate in future
Symposiums. INCOSE members and employees of INCOSE Corporate Advisory
Board (CAB) companies will also have access to most of the Symposium
artifacts/papers.
