About this course

This highly interactive three-day course covers systems engineering fundamentals for project managers and the relationship between project management and systems engineering. It examines how the project management framework sets the stage for systems engineering, and how systems engineering gives project managers technical awareness to assess technical risk, evaluate technical performance and make decisions that meet stakeholder expectations. Topics include process steps, development models and strategies, technical performance measures, management plans, technical reviews and control gates. ASE includes lectures and in-class exercises.
