Graduate Certificate in Systems Engineering & Integration of Naval Weapons Systems
Naval Postgraduate School

Program Details

Begin learning about critical weapons concepts with this online systems engineering degree. These concepts are necessary for enlightened examination of both technology development and military planning. Emphasis is placed on what elements contribute to a combat system, their basic principles of operation, their performance limitations, trade-offs, and their interfaces with the rest of the combat system. Courses introduce students to the nature of physical observables and propagators, the effects of the propagation medium on sensor performance, the relationship between signals and noise, and the characteristics of critical sensor functions. Students then apply systems engineering principles to understand the design and operation of combat sensor systems.
