Masters of Engineering
Concentration in Systems Engineering
A professional degree program that prepares graduates
to solve difficult problems inside and outside traditional engineering.
Program Overview
Systems Engineering is an interdisciplinary approach and means to enable the realization of successful systems.
Systems engineering considers both the business and the technical needs of all customers with the goal of
providing a quality product or service that meets the user needs.
Systems engineers play a vital role in solving some of the most pressing problems facing industry and government:
•Complex decisions with difficult tradeoffs
•Mega-projects with significant risk
•Critical infrastructure systems
•Environmental impacts
•Complex and interconnected business environments
•Large-scale product and process design
Success in these environments transcends traditional engineering and requires expertise in engineering, business,
economics, finance, and policy.
Systems engineers are needed in a range of application domains and industries including:
•Transportation and logistics
•Supply chain systems
•Electro-mechanical product design
•Decision analysis
•Business strategy
•Large-scale system integration
•Project management
•Public policy
Page 1
The Systems Engineering program is a problemsolving discipline that applies engineering principles
to both traditional and non-traditional engineering
problems.
Systems Engineering Program Philosophy
• The goal is to impart a set of portable tools, concepts, and
applications that enable graduates to model, design, and control
natural and engineered systems for the benefit of society.
• The core coursework is a set of integrated decision making
methodologies drawn from economics, optimization, probability,
systems thinking and analysis, and decision analysis.
• Students round out their education by selecting electives in
business, economics, finance, management, mathematics, public
policy and traditional engineering disciplines.

Systems Engineering Program Value to Students
Page 3
1.
Give students a competitive edge in today’s interdisciplinary job
environment and increasingly interconnected economy
2.
Educate students in holistic approaches to complex problems
3.
Create strong ability to solve business issues in an integrative
manner, using a strong foundation of analytical tools
4.
Instill high proficiency in understanding and tackling
interdisciplinary issues at the interface of management,
engineering, and public policy
The core or portable concepts apply to a wide range
of systems engineering problems.

Master of Engineering (ME) Degree Requirements
1. At least 18 hours must be from Industrial Engineering and Systems Engineering
2. At least 9 hours must be from departments other than Industrial Engineering and
Systems Engineering.
3. The total number of hours on the degree plan must be at least 30.
4. One or two written reports from either an internship, project course, or a special
assignment within an area of Industrial or Systems Engineering.
The chair of the advisory committee must be a member of the ISEN graduate faculty. A
co-chair, if desired, may be from another department. The Master's committee must
have a minimum of three graduate faculty members. At least one graduate faculty
member of the committee must be from outside the ISEN Department. In addition to the
above requirements, individual faculty may require additional courses as they deem
appropriate.
