SYSTEMS ANALYSIS and DESIGN

AIM

This course's objective is to define the concepts of systems approach and innovative system design for technology-based engineering systems. The course is structured along the phases of the systems development lifecycle and provides necessary tools and techniques for systems analysis, design, and management. Students will have a hands-on learning experience applying these topics throughout a student-selected team project.
