  • ISE 4311 - Applied Systems Engineering


    Introduces students to key thoughts and tools needed to move to the next level of engineering design excellence, where designing an operational component that works well by itself is not enough. Here students learn how to ensure that a product meets the customer’s actual need, that it works optimally and behaves as expected within a much larger and more complex system, that it lasts for its entire expected life, and that it does all these things at an affordable and stable cost. Individual disciplines of system engineering, such as requirements analysis, functional design, and life cycle cost analysis, are identified, integrated into a new way of thinking–systems thinking–and illustrated by a series of exercises and actual case studies from industry and government. Notable successes and spectacular failures are examined, and the indispensable role of the influential team leader is described. Systems engineering is shown to be a uniquely effective interface between management, customers, suppliers, specialty engineers and other stakeholders in the systems development process.
