Design & Integration Strategies: Systems Engineering for Complex Systems






Systems engineering is a multidisciplinary approach to designing, building, and deploying systems, often complex systems. Although complex systems are greater than the sum of their parts, understanding individual components is still an absolute necessity, and systems engineers are uniquely qualified to understand and design for complexity. In this course, you’ll be introduced to systems engineering for complex systems, including the complex systems engineering process, system-level models for complex systems, complex system architectures, and complex system verification and validation. Then you’ll delve into stakeholder engagement, risk management, and decision management for complex systems. Finally, you’ll explore standards and guidelines, how to develop a complex system architecture, and how to create a system verification and validation plan.
