SE 201: Introduction to Systems Engineering (2-0-2) Dr. Sami El Ferik
SE 201: Introduction to Systems Engineering (2-0-2) • Catalog Description : • Introduction to Systems Engineering. Some areas of Industrial Engineering/Operations Research: facility location, quality control, production planning, and linear programming. • Some areas of Automation/Control Engineering: concepts of automatic control, open and closed loop control, and use of computers in control. Systems approach to engineering problems, integrating the above tools. Applications of system concepts in engineering. • Prerequisites : MATH 102.
Prerequisites by topic: • Applications of definite integrals. • Logarithmic, exponential, and inverse trigonometric functions. • Infinite series of positive terms. • Textbook : Turner, Mize, Case, and Nazemetz, Introduction to Industrial and Systems Engineering, Third Edition, 1993. • Course Objectives : This course introduces students to Systems Engineering concepts and methodology, and to the two SE options: (i) Industrial Engineering & Operations Research (IE/OR), and (ii) Automation & Control (A/C). The course also gives a broad picture of Systems Engineering applications, fields of study, and career opportunities.
Learning Outcomes : • Toward the end of the course, the student must be able to do the following: • Define Systems Engineering, and identify its main tools, applications, and career paths. • Identify the Common features of the two SE options: IE/OR, and A/C. • Understand the basic concepts, terminology, and applications of the following IE/OR areas: • Facility Location and Layout. • Material Handling, Distribution & Routing. • Work Measurement & Design. • Inventory & Production Planning. • Forecasting & Scheduling. • Quality Control. • Basic Operations Research (graphical LP). • Assignment & Transportation Problems.
Understand the basic concepts, terminology, and applications of the following A/C areas: • Introduction to Control Systems • Modeling of Dynamical Systems • Examples of Control Systems • Feedback Control • Analysis of First-Order Systems • Demonstrations of Control Systems
