About this course
An overview of systems engineering and its key principles across the life cycle, from concept and requirements definition through design, implementation, integration, verification and validation to operation and disposal, and how applying them improves system quality and reduces risk and rework.
The course covers the logic of the systems engineering approach, its place in engineering and its role compared with project management, how a system meets needs and requirements, work breakdown structures, generating requirements from an architecture, and technical and organisational management processes. Given in person at the client's site or at Starion's headquarters in Transinne, in English or Dutch.
