Course Overview

Develop Knowledge and Skills That Make Your Team Stand Out

This three-day systems engineering training course provides a hands-on introduction to the systems engineering method, focusing on its application to complex, high-technology projects. Designed to enhance your team’s expertise, this course covers the latest tools, methodologies, and techniques needed to effectively tackle the complex engineering challenges faced in today’s fast-evolving landscape.

Students will gain in-depth knowledge of key systems engineering processes, including operational analysis, functional analysis, requirements development, architectural design, synthesis, and verification and validation. Each module concludes with an interactive, instructor-led workshop, demonstrating how these techniques can be effectively applied in real-world technical scenarios.

The course also delves into critical systems engineering project processes that ensure successful systems engineering and project outcomes. Topics include systems engineering management, technical risk management, configuration management, and requirements management. By the end of the course, students will have a comprehensive understanding of how to integrate technical and project processes needed to deliver successful, multidisciplinary projects.

Attendees receive a comprehensive set of training notes with supplementary reading materials.
