Bachelor of Science in Industrial Engineering

This program deals with the design, improvement, and installation of integrated systems of people, materials, information, equipment, and energy. The program draws upon specialized knowledge and skills in the principles and methods of engineering analysis and design to specify, predict, and evaluate the results obtained from such systems.

Graduates of this program may pursue a career in operations research, inventory management, facilities engineering, ergonomics, methods engineering, production and operations management, logistics and supply chain management, quality engineering, and systems engineering.

Vision

The School of Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management is committed to producing globally competitive industrial engineers through a state-of-the-art delivery of basic knowledge in science, math, humanities, and engineering as well as practical, technical, and managerial skills. Our graduates shall be able to plan, design, implement, and manage efficient and quality manufacturing and service systems in a professional and ethical manner.

In so doing, the School shall engage in cutting-edge research and actively understand and respond to the needs of its stakeholders.

PROGRAMS

The general objective of the School of Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management (IE-EMG) is to prepare students for a career in the field of Industrial Engineering and Service Engineering and Management.
