BENEFITS OF INCOSE MEMBERSHIP

Why INCOSE?

INCOSE was created to:

  1. Foster the definition, understanding and practice of world-class Systems Engineering in industry, academia and government.
  2. Provide a focal point for dissemination of Systems Engineering knowledge.
  3. Promote collaboration in Systems Engineering education and research.
  4. Assure the existence of professional standards for integrity in the practice of Systems Engineering.

The Need:

If you are involved in developing systems, or integrating system elements, you need to know the systems engineering processes.  Systems engineering is increasingly important for development of today’s products.  You may not be classified as a systems engineer per se, but this discipline may have much to offer you professionally.

INCOSE is an international organization formed to develop, nurture, and enhance multi-disciplinary system development under the title of Systems Engineering.

INCOSE can help you be a leader in your company by applying “Systems” Engineering in solving your company’s problems.
