Study and analysis of best practices for the development of systems engineers at a multi-national organization

Abstract

Thesis statement: The purpose of this thesis is threefold: * Define the role and need of systems engineers/integrators within a large organization. * Analyze the system engineering procedures and availability of systems engineers/integrators to fill the need within multiple business units of a large multinational corporation and recommend best practices for development of system engineers/integrators. This thesis will investigate a product oriented company which operates in various market segments. This company, a manufacturer with a history of producing reliable and scalable products, places heavy emphasis on systems engineering. This, in turn, creates the need for highly experienced and efficient system engineers/integrators.
