The authors have observed a widespread need for general information regarding the availability and characteristics of Systems Engineering (SE) academic degree programs. This paper provides a compilation of SE degree programs in the United States, giving insight regarding academic content, administrative structure, accreditation status, and establishes a benchmark for the continued advancement of these degree programs. Description and analysis is offered by the authors to set a baseline that may be utilized to assess the future of existing and developing degree programs. The model for description and analysis utilized in this paper will be extended to the international domain in the near future.
