Matthew Amissah is an Assistant Teaching Professor in the Systems Engineering program. Prior to this he was an Adjunct faculty member in the Engineering Management and Systems Engineering department at Old Dominion University. His doctoral research offered a framework for developing executable models of real time systems based on the Systems Modeling Language (SysML).

Matthew believes there’s a perfect model of every reality (Truth if you will); from the most seemingly chaotic to the most elegant. His research and teaching embraces this philosophy and is aimed at building and inspiring the pursuit of better (“truer”) models of the systems that surround us. His immediate research interests are focused on developing methods and tools for analysis and decision support of complex engineering systems.
