  • Credits: 4.0
  • Type: VU Lecture and Exercise
  • Format: Blended Learning

Learning outcomes

After successful completion of the course, students are able to...

  • apply the methods and processes of systems engineering to develop a complex system,
  • to understand the importance of systems engineering for the design of safety-critical systems,
  • analyze and design a system using a formal system description language. For this purpose, they are able to apply a model-based systems engineering (MBSE) tool.

Subject of course

Introduction Systems Engineering, Development Processes, Complexity, Stakeholder Management, Innovation Management, Classic Requirements Management (Requirement Based Engineering), Variant Management, Validation and Verification, Human-Machine Interface, Model Theory, Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE): Use Case Analysis, Architectures, Communication (Data, Matter, Energy) and Interface Specification, Behaviour (Activities and State Machines), Textual Requirements in the Model, Traceability, Mathematical evaluations using Parametric Diagrams

Teaching methods

Lecture (online part) supported by media (video sequences, educational films). Practical exercises on system analysis and design with Model-based Systems Engineering (MBSE) using relevant software tools (attendance part).

Mode of examination

Additional information

The first course date is an attendance date where we introduce ourselves and the course and, conversely, also want to get to know you - without the anonymity of the online format. In the following weeks, the course takes place online (Attendance is obligatory; a maximum of 20% of the courses may be missed without excuse note) as preparation for the attendance week (blocked) in May (Attendance is obligatory). A Windows PC/Notebook with 8GB RAM or 4GB RAM in the case of a 32bit system is required to participate in the block course. If only a Linux PC/notebook or a MacBook is available, the necessary software can also be installed on a virtual machine (with Windows OS).

Information on the exact dates, times and rooms can be found in the relevant section!

Examination modalities

  1. Written tests (2); both tests must be passed (the test is passed if 50% of the questions are answered correctly)
  2. Creation of a model in the group with a software tool for system modeling.

The final assessment is based on the average result of the two tests and the grading of the group work in equal parts.
