Overview

The aim of this course is to provide an understanding of SYSML (System Modelling Language) as a general-purpose architecture modelling language for Systems Engineering. SYSML supports the specification, analysis, design, verification and validation of a broad range of systems and systems-of-systems. The course is an in-depth discussion and hands-on implementation of SYSML diagrams for Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) and system architecting applications.

Prerequisite:

Basic systems engineering methodologies, and system lifecycle is beneficial but not necessary.
