Presentation: This presentation, Future-Ready Systems Engineers: Designing Education for a Changing World, explores how to equip engineers for emerging global challenges. Dr. Szopa begins by examining how well U.S. universities currently teach systems engineering and where gaps remain. She proposes forward-looking strategies to align education with the demands of complexity, sustainability, and digital transformation. The session encourages rethinking curricula to cultivate adaptable, interdisciplinary, and innovation-driven systems engineers.
