This course provides a deep understanding of engineering systems at a level intended for research on complex engineering systems. It provides a review and extension of what is known about system architecture and complexity from a theoretical point of view while examining the origins of and recent developments in the field. The class considers how and where the theory has been applied, and uses key analytical methods proposed. Students examine the level of observational (qualitative and quantitative) understanding necessary for successful use of the theoretical framework for a specific engineering system. Case studies apply the theory and principles to engineering systems.

Subject focuses on project management principles, methods, and tools to effectively plan and implement successful developments. Material is divided into five major sections: project organization, planning, monitoring, control, and learning. Emphasis on new methodologies and tools such as deterministic, probabilistic and resource management, as well as project system dynamics and measurements. Topics are covered from strategic, tactical, and operational perspectives. Term projects analyze and evaluate past and ongoing projects in student's area of interest. Projects used to apply concepts discussed in class.

A brief explanation of how psychological disorders are diagnosed and classified including the main content of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) and the International Classification of Diseases, and person-centered language.
