The systems engineering PhD is an interdisciplinary graduate degree program provided by the School of Manufacturing Systems and Networks.
This program focuses on enhancing comprehension of intricate engineering systems, which encompass not just technological elements but also social, cultural, environmental, and other interconnected factors influencing system inputs, outputs, and interactions. It equips students to recognize, model, examine, interpret, enhance, and oversee the multifaceted relationships within increasingly complex contemporary technological and societal issues.
Ideal candidates for this doctorate typically hold a master's in engineering or a related field. Exceptional applicants with substantial research experience may qualify directly with a bachelor's in engineering or similar discipline. The foundational coursework establishes systems thinking principles, system identification techniques, modeling methods, and design/analysis approaches using varied disciplinary methodologies. Doctoral candidates apply their ability to assess complex systems and advanced mathematical skills to investigate problems where complexity hinders advancement.
