For the Degree of Bachelor of Science in Industrial Engineering
Industrial engineering reflects the global, systems-oriented way we look at the world today. Industrial engineers focus on systems and how their components fit together. To solve complex systems problems, engineers must understand people as well as technology. Consequently, industrial engineering draws upon a variety of disciplines, from mathematics to psychology from communications to computer science, from production management to process control. Industrial engineers design efficient, productive systems in a wide range of business, industrial, and governmental settings.
The technical portion of the industrial engineering curriculum is designed as a sequence of increasingly specialized experiences. The entering student's first year is spent mastering the basics of science: math, chemistry, and physics. Building on this base, in the second year students begin to take fundamental engineering courses such as statics, dynamics, statistics, and strength of materials. By the third year, students are taking specialized industrial engineering courses in operations research, human factors, facilities and production planning, quality control, materials, and manufacturing. Finally, during the senior year, students have the opportunity to both broaden and deepen their knowledge of the field through technical elective courses. At the end of the curriculum, students take the capstone senior design course (IE 280), in which the knowledge and skills they have learned are applied to projects submitted to the department by industrial firms. Engineering design, communication, teamwork, and laboratory experiences are integrated throughout the curriculum from the first year to the last year.
The objectives of the Industrial Engineering program are to prepare students for successful careers by providing:
· a rigorous background in mathematics and the physical sciences;
· the analytical, computational, experimental, and methodological tools to define complex problems and create viable solutions;
· communication and teamwork skills;
· an understanding of their professional responsibilities with respect to the societal and ethical impacts of their actions; and
· a recognition of the need for and the skills to engage in life-long learning.
The educational outcomes associated with meeting these objectives are listed in the College of Engineering description.
To qualify for registration in the industrial engineering courses shown in the third (junior) year of the curriculum, a student must have completed the mathematics, chemistry, physics, computer science, and engineering courses that are shown in the first (freshman) and second (sophomore) years of the curriculum with a combined grade point average of at least 2.25 (A=4.0). To remain in good academic standing or graduate from this curriculum, a student must have a grade point average of at least 2.0 in all 200- and 300-level required engineering courses and technical elective courses taken on this campus.
The curriculum requires 132 hours for graduation.
