Systems engineering (SE) is essential to the success of many human endeavors. As engineered systems increase in scale and complexity, SE is increasingly recognized worldwide for its importance in their development, deployment, operation, and evolution.

The purpose of the Guide to the Systems Engineering Body of Knowledge (SEBoK) is to provide a widely accepted, community-based, and regularly updated baseline of SE knowledge.

Part 1 of the SEBoK provides an introduction to the SEBoK wiki and a set of SEBoK users. Guidance is given for how each user of the SEBoK might begin to navigate the wiki. Part 1 also includes an introduction to the discipline of systems engineering describing its value, history and evolution and relationships with other disciplines. The final knowledge area in Part 1 describes some of the emerging aspects of Systems Engineering (SE) and how these are transforming the discipline.

Part 1 Knowledge Areas

Part 1 contains the following:
