Requirements
Prospective students are not expected to have prior experience with system modelling; however, they should possess a strong understanding of traditional "document-centric" systems engineering practices.

The examples were very helpful to grasp the concept. The lecture was a good background but not enough to really understand and learn so the examples were great to piece it all together.
