Bachelor of Science in
Industrial Engineering

The Bachelor of Science in Industrial Engineering (BS IE) is a four-year undergraduate program that provides students with the knowledge and skills necessary to design, improve, and manage systems that involve people, materials, information, equipment, and energy. The program covers a wide range of topics, including:

• Operations research

• Systems analysis and design

• Manufacturing systems

• Quality control

• Ergonomics

• Supply chain management

• Human resources management

• Project management

Students in the BS IE program learn to use mathematical and statistical tools to solve problems, to design and implement efficient processes, and to manage people and resources effectively. They also gain experience in working on real-world projects through internships and capstone courses.

The objectives of the BS IE program are to:

• Provide students with a strong foundation in the principles of industrial engineering.

• Develop students’ problem-solving and analytical skills.

• Prepare students for careers in industrial engineering or for graduate study in industrial engineering.

• Promote students’ understanding of the impact of industrial engineering on society.

• Encourage students to become lifelong learners.

Graduates of the BS IE program will be able to:

• Apply the principles of industrial engineering to solve problems in a variety of settings.

• Design and implement efficient processes.

• Manage people and resources effectively.

• Communicate effectively about industrial engineering.

• Work effectively in teams.
