About this course

A three-day course applying systems engineering methods to fusion energy research and development, for engineers and scientists in start-ups and research laboratories. It covers the role of the systems engineer, the essentials of ISO 15288 and the INCOSE Handbook, operational and functional analysis as the basis of a modular architecture, customised lifecycles, baselines and control gates, technical risk analysis with a focus on safety and security, V&V planning and key templates such as the context diagram and SE Management Plan. It runs at customer sites or public venues including Zürich, Munich, Oxford and Aix-en-Provence.
