Program Learning Outcomes

Graduates of the Systems Engineering program will:

• Apply the appropriate mathematical, science and engineering techniques to systems engineering problems.
• Identify the proper application of Systems Engineering processes, tools and methodologies to interdisciplinary problems.
• Generate, collect and articulate user needs and requirements for complex systems.
• Define the role of Systems Engineering processes and tools in each phase of a system’s life cycle: from inception through retirement.
• Compare and contrast the impact of engineering solutions and design alternatives in the context of acquisition, environmental, ethical, fiscal, operational, schedule and technological constraints.
• Describe how to plan and manage complex systems engineering projects.
• Outline professional and ethical responsibility in engineering efforts.
• Compare and contrast system and component-level alternatives using appropriate system analysis tools.
• Articulate technically complex ideas and concepts in oral as well as in written format.
