Course content
Overview of lectures: 1. Overview and Principles of System Engineering, Systems Thinking. 2. Individual stages of the production/system life cycle and product/system development. 3. Product Lifecycle Management - PLM, ISO / IEC 15288, Life Cycle Processes. 4. Individual Life Cycle Phases (Concept, Design and Development, Prototype, Launch) 5. Individual stages of the life cycle (Manufacture, Distribution, Service and Support, Termination and Disposal/Recycle) 6. Life cycle of system product development and basic approaches (prototype, incremental, spiral) 7. Decision-making management (multi-criteria decision making, decision analysis and trees). 8. Analysis of product / system requirements. 9. Function analysis, interface analysis, assignment requirements. 10. Risk and opportunity management (identification, assessment and risk monitoring) 11. Prediction of quality and reliability 12. Process monitoring - traceability 13. Analysis of the safety and health risks of an electrical product
