1 00:00:03,830 --> 00:00:07,790 This program is unique in many ways one of the most important unique opportunities 2 00:00:07,790 --> 00:00:11,780 that I would say the program provides is really to be able to work with the best 3 00:00:11,780 --> 00:00:16,120 faculty in the world in their own fields Cornell he's an extremely broad and deep 4 00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:20,940 University who has pretty much every major important board systems work my Ph D. 5 00:00:20,940 --> 00:00:22,730 actually is in systems engineering and 6 00:00:22,730 --> 00:00:26,490 what I do is build large scale mathematical models of big systems so 7 00:00:26,490 --> 00:00:32,040 one project right now is looking at a vacuum in the face when do you tell people 8 00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:36,450 to go which ones do you tell them with an evolving threat over time another heavily 9 00:00:36,450 --> 00:00:41,140 systems engineering problem I would say that the most important type of systems 10 00:00:41,140 --> 00:00:45,800 research that we do here is focused on the global challenges there is a lot of 11 00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:51,060 research being done at Cornell in that area we have people in France and 12 00:00:51,060 --> 00:00:54,760 we have people like means space systems trying to figure out how 13 00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:58,130 satellites can help with that so I think that's pretty unique to Cornell.
