Abstract: Throughout the lifecycle of a Complex System, Systems Engineers are challenged to bridge the gaps between several technical and social specialty areas. Risk Management is a field that allows Systems Engineers to make these connections and related strategic decisions in a structured, science‐based manner. The panel will explore current practice for applying Risk Management in Systems Engineering.
