SYSTEMS ENGINEERING PLANNING AND MANAGEMENT

Catalog Description

Provide a practical coverage of tasks, processes, methods and techniques to establish the process of systems engineering and its role in the planning and management of programs. The tasks and roles of Program Manager and Systems Engineer are unveiled for establishing program operations and communications framework. Techniques are presented for developing an integrated program/project plan by defining the role of the systems integrator and identifying useful tools for planning and managing systems integration of various sized projects. The student learns to prepare for and successfully complete key program milestone reviews by identifying essential material content and proving the design basis. The course leads the student through the systems development process by showing how to plan for and manage change by implementing methods for configuration, change, and risk management. The program life cycle is concluded by planning the transition of systems engineering processes from development to production and field support.
