System Engineering and Energy programs

A Case Study on the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg

Case Study , 2017 , 19 Pages

Engineering - Power Engineering

First off, this project gives insight into how to define various systems management (project management and systems engineering) terms and to answer to the frequently asked questions in systems management. Specifically, to think like a systems engineer by changing the way of approaching and specifying a solution or addressing problems. Then the overall purpose is to use and apply Systems Engineering approaches to solve the high levels of unstructured problem situation and try to structure a debate concerning actions for improving the problem "energy program" situation within the System (University of Witwatersrand-Johannesburg).
