Mission and Purpose

The mission of the Special Technical Committee on Systems Engineering of the IEEE Computer Society (STC-SysE) is to advance the principles and practices of systems engineering as applied to development and sustainment of computer-based and software-intensive systems. The Committee seeks to identify and develop products and services that will be of benefit to members of the Computer Society and that will attract new members.

The purpose of the Committee is to serve as a focal point for technical and managerial issues in systems engineering that are common across the Computer Society boards and committees, and to provide liaison to other elements of IEEE and external organizations.  The purpose is NOT to usurp the ongoing and future work of existing Computer Society boards and committees.
