In a significant stride towards tailoring undergraduate education to address modern societal needs, the Department of Civil and Systems Engineering (CaSE) proudly introduces the <\/span>Systems Engineering (SE) minor<\/span><\/a>. Stemming from the <\/span>SE Bachelor’s program<\/span><\/a> launched in 2022<\/span>, the minor transcends traditional engineering boundaries, offering students a trans-disciplinary approach spanning mathematics, engineering, social and physical sciences, public policy and health.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This addition to CaSE\u2019s academic offerings addresses society\u2019s evolving needs with the understanding that contemporary challenges require not just technological innovation, but effective and equitable implementations. The SE program provides students with knowledge of theory, computational methods, and research in the fundamental frameworks of optimization, network theory, data science and uncertainty quantification, providing the tools required to envision solutions to big-picture problems in a range of applications.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A notable feature of the program is its responsiveness to current global issues. From modeling and monitoring pandemics to optimizing resource allocation, designing resilient infrastructure systems, and building interconnected smart cities\u2014the curriculum aligns with today’s pressing needs. \u201cSystems engineering is a growing field that focuses on improving systems in our society. CaSE\u2019s program is really unique because we strive to maximize hands-on learning. Students have told me how excited they are when they can use real data and work on real problems. I\u2019ve seen them become intensely emersed in today\u2019s challenges, while also practicing skills that will prepare them for their future careers,\u201d explains Director of Undergraduate Studies for Systems Engineering and lecturer, Dr. Melissa Tilashalski.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Despite tackling such widespread societal challenges, SE programs remain limited in number. With CaSE\u2019s program being one of a few of its kind, students can be confident in the skills they develop from our engaging faculty and classes, giving them a leading advantage for careers in growing fields such as future energy systems, smart cities, disaster mitigation and community resilience, and decision-making.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-46347","news","type-news","status-publish","hentry","news_categories-student-experience","news_categories-systems"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nCaSE Introduces New Systems Engineering Minor - Department of Civil & Systems Engineering<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/case\/news\/case-introduces-new-systems-engineering-minor\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"CaSE Introduces New Systems Engineering Minor - Department of Civil & Systems Engineering\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"In a significant stride towards tailoring undergraduate education to address modern societal needs, the Department of Civil and Systems Engineering (CaSE) proudly introduces the Systems Engineering (SE) minor.
