Systems Engineering
Systems
Engineers bring together the efforts of a variety of engineering fields.
They develop, analyze, and often optimize complex systems. The systems
might involve people, software, equipment, components, energy, and the
environment.
Systems engineers work in just about every industry and
often work in teams with other engineers. They are involved in
healthcare, manufacturing, healthcare, and research and design.
Preparation
Those interested in a
career in systems engineering should consider reviewing engineering programs that are
accredited by
ABET, Inc. If you choose to attend a program that is not ABET accredited, you should be sure that the university
is regionally accredited.
Systems engineering students take courses such as
Simulation Methods, Circuits and Instrumentation, Electricity and
Magnetism, Robotics, Engineering Economics, and Signals and Systems.
Co-ops
Students seeking
forest engineering jobs enhance their employment opportunities
by participating in internship or co-op programs offered through
their schools. These experiences provide the students with broad
knowledge and experience, making them more attractive candidates to
employers. Many universities offer co-op and internship programs for
students studying systems engineering.
