Systems engineers often grow into their role gradually within the context of one company, with their role evolving due to the increasing complexity of the systems they develop. Once in a while, the question arises as to whether the correct systems engineering methodology has been chosen for a particular project. Where does the innovation in engineering methodology come from? Saxion University of Applied Sciences and the TValley robotics and mechatronics innovation cluster have developed a method in which education, training, knowledge sharing and learning are connected in a practical feedback loop that ensures continuous innovation in systems engineering.
