This joint volume of proceedings gathers together papers from the satellite events from MODELS 2017 including the workshops (listed below), Educators and Doctoral Symposia, Posters and Tools & Demonstrations sessions, and the ACM Student Research Competition. These events were all held during the 2017 MODELS conference September 17th through September 22nd. MODELS is the premier conference series for model-based software and systems engineering covering all aspects of modeling from languages and methods to tools and applications. The many workshops at MODELS provide devoted meetings for discussion and sharing of ideas relevant to a specific topic. The Educators Symposium provides a venue for educators interested in MDE to gather to share ideas and discuss relevant topics and trends. The Posters session provides a venue for researchers to present and receive feedback on early and ongoing projects, innovative applications of existing tools, and ideas for novel applications in the area of MDE. The Tools & Demonstrations session recognizes the importance of tools to MDE, and includes submissions of both industry and research tools. The Doctoral Symposium and ACM Student Research Competition support student research. The Doctoral Symposium enables young researchers to present receive feedback on their existing and planned research projects from their fellow students and experienced faculty mentors in the area of MDE. The ACM Student Research Competition supports student researchers through a competition where the students present novel research in the area of MDE, gaining the opportunity to meet and exchange ideas with fellow students and experienced researchers in the field as well as getting feedback on their research projects and presentation skills from a panel of distinguished judges from industry and academia. The papers for each event were reviewed and selected by the organizers of the appropriate event along with the associated program committee. Below, we briefly list the many organizers that made the MODELS 2017 Satellite Events a success. Furthermore, we would like to recognize the MODELS 2017 Workshop Chairs who reviewed and selected the workshops.

We would like to thank all those who served as organizers (listed above), on program committees, or as volunteers in support of any of the events included in this volume. MODELS 2017 was made successful through the many contributions of each of you, and we are grateful for the privilege of being able to work with you over the past months.
We also acknowledge the team at CEUR that have made publishing this volume possible, and the team at EasyChair whose software was instrumental in reviewing the many contributions to the MODELS 2017 Satellite Events.
