The MSSE program at CSUDH provides students with the latest, cutting-edge skills and design methods for the realization and management of the complex, interdependent systems required to develop and maintain today’s products and systems in rapidly changing environments. These include Model Based Systems Engineering, Systems Architecting, System-of-Systems Engineering and Complex and Resilient Systems. The curriculum balances theory with practical projects and case studies, enabling students to understand and implement applicable models to enhance and complement systems engineering activities throughout a project’s life cycle.
Systems Engineering has been implemented in nearly every field, including:
The program will have full-time face-to-face course modality offered beginning in Fall 2025.
Systems Engineering is a holistic interdisciplinary process critical to designing, integrating and managing complex systems to maximize system quality and safety. The high-demand discipline boasts an average, entry-level salary of $92,000, and the number of professionals is projected to increase by 27% nationwide and 42% in California between 2014–2024. Systems Engineers typically begin their careers in engineering, physical science or computing positions, and not only have depth in their primary field, but also develop skills and 'systems thinking' that allows them to solve problems that transcend disciplinary boundaries.
The CSUDH MSSE program draws upon case studies, methodologies and tools from several engineering industries, providing experienced professionals as well as those new to the field with exposure to real-world systems engineering case studies. Students access contextualized case studies within their industries, and complete their degree with a culminating project that prepares them for complex, real-life projects.
Students will learn how to apply systems engineering knowledge and techniques to problems from the automotive, commercial aviation, defense, electronic communication and space industries. They will learn the importance of implementing Model Based Systems Engineering in the development of complex, interdependent systems that may be comprised of a combination of legacy and new components.
CSUDH is fully accredited by WASC (Western Association of Schools and Colleges).
