MS/SE Concentration in
Systems Management (SMG)
The defining reality of the 20th Century is evolution into a society of
organizations and the emergence of management as a discipline. The technical
disciplines of systems engineering are necessary but not sufficient for the
development of successful systems. The management aspect of systems engineering
involves tracking and control of system development through the major phase of
the system lifecycle, identifying and resolving problems to minimize impacts on
cost, schedule or performance, and iteratively improving both product and
process. The emphasis in Systems Management focuses on the theory and practice of systems management and prepares students for careers in managing the development of complex systems.
