Businesses in the Center for Systems Engineering (CSE)
Pre-Competitive Technology Development
The CSE is your reliable partner when it comes to revealing potential, effectiveness and efficiency for the transfer and dissemination of state-of-the-art methodologies in your company to develop model-based systems Engineering. We want to assist you in strengthening your in-house competence for modeling, simulation, virtual product development and engineering IT and in the development of tailor-made methods for your successful implementation.
Strategic Business Focus
We develop a corporate technology and research roadmap for the CSE in periodic workshops, where we address future technology trends in the field of model-based systems development. In these workshops, enrolled companies are made aware of upcoming technological shifts at an early stage, apply external know-how to their own innovation process and systematically plan their new strategic focus. To that end, the CSE offers bilateral strategy meetings for the development of individual business strategies with a clear focus on product development. The end result is long-term competitiveness for CSE members.
Holistic Research & Development
The CSE offers its enrolled companies a unique environment to holistically develop and test model-based systems and related processes. The CSE represents extensive expertise in computer-aided product development across the entire product lifecycle.
Interdisciplinarity
The combination of development and research activities in the area of model-based systems development at the CSE promotes networking and cooperation between industry and academia. Enrolled businesses have the opportunity to participate in determining relevant technology topics and key research areas for the coming years, debate current issues and identify new cooperation partners. All members have access to the RWTH Aachen on-campus network, which allows them to discover cross-application synergies and establish new business relationships.
Recruiting and Further Education
Enrollment in the CSE increases the visibility of companies at RWTH Aachen University and their attractiveness for highly qualified individuals and leadership personalities. Enrolled members furthermore have access to a wide range of further education programs, which facilitate the knowledge transfer of latest scientific findings to their own staff. Enrolled CSE members therefore have the unique opportunity to cover future needs for staff and skill sets and reinforce their own innovation capabilities long-term.
Knowledge Exchange
The CSE holds regular meetings of the full consortium for mutual knowledge exchange. Our consortium of companies from a variety of industry sectors mirrors the interdisciplinary nature of model-based systems engineering. That in particular is a significant factor for guaranteeing a holistic approach to MBSE. Benefit from the experience of our partners and the current challenges they face, share your own success factors and join us in developing innovative and creative solutions for organizational and technical MBSE issues.
