The courses in this certificate focus on teaching students engineering design and management of large complex systems, including software-intensive systems. By exposing the students to the systems engineering design body of knowledge and allowing them to develop systems skills in stimulating and challenging environments, they will be prepared to become industry leaders who can make a significant difference. Upon completion of this certificate, the students will be able to design, lead, and manage any systems engineering effort regardless of size, complexity, technologies, or engineering emphasis.
