System Engineering

Catalog description

(ECE 52701). In today’s environment, there is an ever-increasing need to develop and produce systems that are robust, reliable, high quality, supportable, cost-effective, and responsive to the needs of the customer or user. Reflecting these worldwide trends, System Engineering course introduces students to the full range of system engineering concepts, tools, and techniques, emphasizing the application of principles and concepts of system engineering and the way these principles aid in the development, utilization, and support of systems. The course covers systems engineering from both a technical and management perspective. The course is aimed primarily to engineering graduate students interested in project management. Typically offered Fall Spring Summer. Course Learning Outcomes 1. Understand the design of quality into products and processes using design of experiments including robust/parameter design and tolerance design techniques. 2. Learn that design of experiments is a systematic and efficient method of design optimization for performance, quality, and cost in quality engineering. 3. Be able to use statistical quality control to improve the product and/or process quality for a given design. View Class Schedule
