ABOUT THIS COURSE
This is the first course in the four-course program Architecture and Systems Engineering: Models and Methods to Manage Complex Systems. You may take this course separately.
Understanding and managing system complexity is a critical challenge today as systems continue to grow in scale and complexity. This online course is designed to help engineers address changes which induce, propagate, and amplify risk in the increasingly complex products and services they are required to develop. Students will get a solid grounding in complex systems, analysis of complex systems, and complexity management.
