William W. Arrasmith received his Ph.D. in engineering physics from the Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT) in Dayton, OH in 1995. He earned an M.S. in electrical engineering from the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque, NM in 1991. He obtained a B.S. in electrical engineering from Virginia Tech in Blacksburg, VA in 1983. In his current position, he is a Professor of Engineering Systems at the Florida Institute of Technology (FIT) in Melbourne, FL. Prior to FIT, he served in the United States Air Force for over twenty years, culminating with a rank of Lt. Colonel. During his time in the Air Force, he held several positions including Chief, Advanced Science and Technology Division, Applied Technology Directorate at the Air Force Technical Applications Center; Assistant Professor, Weapons and Systems Engineering Department, United States Naval Academy; Program Manager, Physics and Electronics Directorate, Air Force Office of Scientific Research; Director, Flood Beam Experiment, Air Force Research Laboratory (Kirtland Air Force Base); and Project Engineer, Teal Ruby Systems Program Office, Space Division. Dr. Arrasmith is a member of Phi Kappa Phi, Tau Beta Pi, and the American Society of Engineering Education (ASEE) and has two national patents pending. He received the President’s Award for Service at Florida Tech in 2013 and the Walter Nunn Excellence in Teaching Award in the College of Engineering at Florida Tech in 2010.

"… Arrasmith weaves together the essential elements of systems engineering with a focus on the technical performance of optical systems to provide a comprehensive study of these disciplines. A systems engineering lifecycle model is used to introduce design steps in the construction of optical systems that reinforces systems thinking. It is a pleasure to see a highly technical engineering field such as optics linked so well with systems engineering principles and the role of an enterprise architecture. Each topic benefits from the presentation of its counterpart as the design lifecycle is applied and illustrated."—Dr. Wade H.
