Effective from AY2025/26 Trimester 2 (January 2026), the Postgraduate Certificate in Urban Railway Technology will be transiting to Graduate Certificate in Urban Railway Technology. For more details, please refer to the full notice here.

This module looks at the transdisciplinary and integrative approach of Systems Engineering to enable the successful definition, realisation, deployment, use, and retirement of engineered systems.

Systems principles and concepts as well as Systems Engineering processes are illustrated through the co-development of an engineered system. The application of systems engineering on railway systems will be covered in this module. This module is 1 of the 4 core modules under the Postgraduate Certificate in Urban Railway Technology.

Note: In 2024, this module will be renamed from SRT6002 to MEC6012. There is no change in the stackability towards the Postgraduate Certificate in Urban Railway Technology.

Who Should Attend

  • Engineering professionals who have recently embarked on or are planning to start a career in the public transport industry, with specialisations in urban railway systems and technology
  • Participants who wish to obtain the Postgraduate Certificate in Urban Railway Technology

What You Will Learn

  • Articulate the fundamental principles and concepts of systems engineering
  • Demonstrate and apply systems engineering processes through the co-development of an engineered system
