ENGT 321 Applied Systems Engineering

3 CR

This course provides an introduction to systems engineering fundamentals, establishing a robust framework for designing complex engineered systems in response to customer needs and expectations. The emphasis of the course is on the three core activities of systems engineering, which are requirements analysis; functional analysis and allocation; and design synthesis. Together, these activities form what is called the systems engineering process, which provides a comprehensive, life-cycle balanced approach to the design of complex systems that satisfy customer expectations and public acceptability.
Prerequisite(s): (PHYS& 114 OR PHYS& 221) with a C+ or higher and (MATH& 151 OR AMAT 313) with a C or higher and (BAS-ENGT program admission OR Instructor permission).
