Systems Integration Engineering Area – Bachelor of Science

Admission Requirements

In order to be unconditionally admitted to the program, students must demonstrate preparation for calculus by either having a 27 Math ACT score or having successfully completed all prerequisites for MATH 175.

Restriction: A student is prohibited from simultaneously earning both a Systems Integration Engineering - Bachelor of Science degree and the Engineering Management - Bachelor of Science degree.

Program Competencies

As leaders in the systems engineering practice, graduates of the BSSIE program will:

  1. Analyze and solve complex problems using systems engineering tools and techniques.
  2. Employ their systems engineering education to design, operate, evaluate, manage, and improve integrated systems of machines, technology, materials, information, energy, and financial resources.
  3. Possess the human relations and leadership skills necessary for systems engineering professionals, which include proficiencies in conflict resolution, cross-disciplinary team building, mentoring, etc.
  4. Apply the oral, technical and written communication skills required for effective systems engineering practice.
  5. Demonstrate an understanding and awareness of the societal, cultural, ethical, legal and political issues prevalent in an increasingly globalized world.

Student Outcomes:

Systems Integration Engineering graduates will possess an ability to:

  1. Identify, formulate, and solve complex systems engineering problems by applying principles of multiple engineering disciplines, science, and mathematics.
  2. Apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors.
  3. Communicate effectively with a range of audiences.
  4. Recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgements, which must consider the impact of systems integration engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts.
  5. Function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives.
  6. Develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions.
  7. Acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.
