About this Program

Smart cities. Industrial automation. Autonomous vehicles. These environments link people, technology and the physical world through complex, interconnected systems and interfaces. Architecting these agile systems requires leaders who can apply model-based systems engineering (MBSE) planning methods and tools to successfully manage the development, scale and scope of these highly technical projects.

In this graduate certificate program, you’ll gain in-depth knowledge of system requirements development and analysis, lifecycle and functional modeling, and architectural development. You’ll also prepare to take on leadership roles as you grow your skills in team building, project management, risk assessment and financial modeling.
