Increase your knowledge of the system design and integration phases associated with the systems engineering
process. Learn about design decision analysis based on
requirements, interface management across in-house
disciplines, supplier and customer. An emphasis is placed
on design management and integration methods such
as risk management, Integrated Master Plan/Integrated
Master Schedule (IMP/IMS), Work Breakdown Structure,

Gain hands-on experience and increase your understanding of the benefits of simulation-based approaches for
engineering complex systems. Learn how to model and
analyze the interactions between system components,
and system behaviors using the Operational Evaluation
Modeling for Context-Sensitive Systems (OpEMCSS)
simulation program. Systems engineers learn to model
adaptive behaviors of components within decisionoriented architectures. The modeling refers to Intelligent
Agents which learn and create rules that optimize system
performance in a real world environment.
Prerequisite: EECS X491.81, Foundations of the Systems
Engineering Process, or equivalent experience.
