What is the Systems Engineering for Naval and Defense course about?

You've published on extracting meaningful patterns from ship motion data using empirical mode decomposition and LSSVM. Yet, translating those insights into scalable, certifiable defense systems requires a structured engineering backbone that most technical researchers aren’t trained in. The gap between analytical innovation and deployable system architecture is real , especially under mission-critical constraints. Without a unified framework, even strong models stall before.
