Abstract
The future value of systems engineering may well be measured by its contribution to INCOSE's vision of “a better world through a systems approach.” To stay relevant, systems engineering must expand its scope beyond the technical realm by addressing today's most pressing and complex problems, which span technical, social, and ecological domains. This paper builds on our previous work on the evolving architecture of the systems engineering discipline, detailing how it can maintain its value by effectively engaging in eco-socio-technical challenges. We propose collaborative strategies with other disciplines to enhance and broaden its foundational base, which will be crucial for realizing its potential as a transdisciplinary field in an increasingly complex world.
