ITS (Intelligent Transportation Systems) Systems Engineering Training course is designed for ITS system engineers, project managers, system owners, operators, maintainers and anyone else in need of a comprehensive, approachable primer on the basics and advanced of systems engineering for ITS.
The Systems Engineering for Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) training bootcamp provides an approachable introduction to systems engineering for ITS based on recommendations and guidance from United States Department of Transportation – Federal Highway Administration (FHWA).
Objectives
This course is intended to introduce attendees to systems engineering and provide a basic understanding of how it can be applied to planning, designing, and implementing intelligent transportation systems (ITS) projects.
The course leads the attendees step by step through the project life cycle and describes the systems engineering approach at each step using a real project. It focuses on how to begin implementing the systems engineering approach on ITS projects and incorporate it more broadly into your organization's business processes and practices.
