Systems Engineering Body of Knowledge (SEBOK)

Your trusted source for the Guide to the Systems Engineering Body of Knowledge (SEBoK), which was created by the Body of Knowledge and Curriculum to Advance Systems Engineering (BKCASE) project.

Systems engineering is an interdisciplinary approach and means to enable the full life cycle of successful systems, including problem formulation, solution development and operational sustainment and use. Those new to Systems Engineering can find introductory articles which provide an overview of systems engineering, place it in historical context, and discuss its economic value in Part 1 of this body of knowledge.

The BKCASE Project began in 2009 and continues through today. Its aim was to add to the professional practice of systems engineering by creating two closely related products:

  • Guide to the Systems Engineering Body of Knowledge (SEBoK)
  • Graduate Reference Curriculum for Systems Engineering (GRCSE)

The SEBoK came into being out of a recognition that the systems engineering discipline could benefit greatly by having a living authoritative guide closely related to those groups developing guidance on advancing the practice, education, research, work force development, professional certification, standards, etc.

SEBoK Glossary

Systems engineering integrates all the disciplines and specialty groups into a team effort forming a structured development process that proceeds from concept to production to operation. Systems engineering considers both the business and the technical needs of all customers with the goal of providing a quality product that meets the user needs.
