About the Programme
This 10-week online programme defines a holistic approach to Systems Engineering in the context of new and complex techno-centric systems. There will be a focused emphasis on the relationships and interconnections between systems engineering process, and between interfacing systems.
You will learn to apply holistic thinking in a systemic and systematic manner to deal with engineering problems.
If you are a Systems Engineer or Project Manager regularly facing complicated and complex problems, then this is for you!
Learning Outcomes
Understand the reasons for the different definitions of the term “system”, and the various viewpoints on systems engineering
Be able to identify the various types of problems faced by systems engineers in different phases of the system lifecycle
Be able to identify an appropriate tool or methodology to solve the problem
Understand the need for systems engineers with different competencies, skills and knowledge in different parts of the system life cycle
Understand that there isn’t always a single “right” solution to a problem
Have improved systems and critical thinking abilities
Be better than average systems engineers for their level of experience
Who Should Attend?
Managers and leading engineers facing complicated problems.
Managers wanting to improve their thinking and communication skills.
Engineers looking for promotion into management positions.
Systems engineers who want to learn how to use and then go beyond systems thinking.
