Overview

There is a growing need for engineers who are concerned with the whole system and can take an interdisciplinary and top down approach. Systems engineers need to be problem definers, not just problem solvers, and be involved with a system through its life cycle, from development through production, deployment, training support, operation, and disposal.

Graduate programs leading to the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees are offered in Systems Engineering. The graduate program builds on sound engineering undergraduate education, experience, and maintains engineering specialization diversity in its graduates.

Systems Engineering research is supported by interdisciplinary research and collaboration. Research areas include: model based engineering, systems architecting, modeling and simulation, complex adaptive systems, computational intelligence, human system integration and infrastructure systems.
