Overview
Digital competencies are now an inevitable skill as organizations are progressing through digital transformation. The Introduction for Digital Engineering course makes ready knowledge professionals on the front line of this revolution to prepare for this transition.
This short course will introduce the broader aspects of digital transformation and provide you with the critical knowledge and skills that are essential to comprehend digital engineering approaches. It will help you to understand emerging technologies like AI, ML, Digital twin, etc. as a critical tool and their applications in real-world problems. Further, this course will provide foundations for utilizing the lifecycle Modeling framework as a thinking tool (to conceptualize integrated digital engineering ecosystems). It will also assist you to know the treads of digitalisation.
No prior knowledge is assumed.
