The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) awarded a $1,485,000 Congressionally-Identified Projects program (CFDA 11.617) grant to Ohio University to operate the Digital Design Studio (DDS) at the University of Dayton's Digital Transformation Center. The primary objectives of the DDS are to 1) accelerate systems development using model-based systems engineering, digital design, and agile software methods, 2) train the current workforce in these new methods, 3) educate college students in the use of digital engineering tools, and 4) provide a collaborative facility for industry, academia, and government to apply digital engineering technologies. The 3-year grant will fund the acquisition and setup of digital engineering equipment and software, including computers, displays, augmented/virtual reality systems, and workstations to equip the 2,547 sq. ft. DDS space. This funding aims to help the U.S. maintain technological superiority by shortening product development timelines and reducing costs through the increased adoption of model-based systems engineering and digital design approaches.
