HomeSystems Science and Engineering Program
The Systems Science and Engineering (SSE) program specializes in those aspects of engineering that pertain to effectiveness of whole systems. In contrast to other engineering specialties which are grounded in certain aspects of science, system engineering is grounded primarily in mathematics and methodology.
The Curriculum in Systems Science and Engineering
Each student must develop a course plan in consultation with his or her advisor during the freshman year. The requirements for the BSE in Systems Science in Engineering are summarized in a Course Planning Guide (CPG).
Each student must select an Application Focus--a type of system to which they intend to apply the tools of Systems Engineering.
