Systems engineering

Module code: EG4065

Systems engineering combines engineering with engineering management and focuses on how to design, integrate, and manage complex systems across their life cycle. Challenges in healthcare can be considered using a systems approach, everything from policy, to economics, sustainability to social dynamics. This module considers the main aims and outputs of each stage of the system lifecycle. You will learn how to compile, perform and critique the application of basic and advanced systems engineering analyses such as technical budgets, life-cycle costing, trade-offs, safety/reliability analysis, risk registers and Quality Function Deployment.
