Kursbeschreibung

The student explains the difference of a system in comparison to its system elements. He describes the role of a systems engineer within a project organisation and his work areas. The student understands the importance of upfront analysis in order to avoid unplanned costs in later life cycle stages. He recognizes that communication, e.g. with specialist disciplines, is a fundamental element of the SE tasks. The student analyses a system completely on a specific abstraction level considering the complete life cycle before advancing into deeper details towards implementation. He elicits requirements starting from the stakeholder needs, identifies possible solution architectures, performs trade studies and decomposes and allocates the requirements down the system hierarchy. He applies different techniques to validate architecture, design and requirements.
