Doctoral field

Systems engineering

Systems engineering is an interdisciplinary field that encompasses the design, control, and monitoring of complex engineering systems throughout their entire life cycle. Systems engineering covers an extremely wide range of applications, from technical fields such as automatic control engineering, software engineering, industrial engineering, to the study of systems organization or project management. Systems engineering ensures that all elements of a project or system are considered as a whole.
