System Thinking and Systems Engineering encapsulate systemic analysis of problem situations to develop, implement, and maintain
solution systems. The systems engineering processes consider the total system life-cycle, taking into account the requirements of all
stakeholders. All stakeholders, with their requirements, need to be identified, analysed, described and managed over time, keeping
in mind their context. Systems thinking tools assist in the analysis of complex situations to ensure that a solution system can be
engineered.

 

The short course in Systems Thinking and Engineering aims to equip you with the ability to solve problems from a “whole”, “big
picture” or “holistic” perspective. System and problem analysis require a range of critical thinking skills for successful functioning
in a complex world. Also, each system has a life cycle where each phase has different requirements and challenges. This course
will equip you with the necessary systems engineering tools and process to implement an effective solution.
