This video covers what systems engineering is and why it’s useful. We will present a broad overview of how systems engineering helps us develop complex projects that meet the program objectives in an efficient way. This introduction will set the stage for the rest of the series where we will cover how system architectures are developed and described, how we communicate the needs, requirements, and constraints throughout the project, how we optimize the design through trade studies, and how we know the system does what it’s supposed to in the end.
