Industrial and systems engineering studies methods are used in the optimization of complex engineering systems to improve the efficiency of engineering processes and the quality of resulting products. Industrial engineers make use of the workforce, technologies, materials, and financial resources to make sure production processes reach their set targets. They use their technical skills to understand how various engineering structures work and how to apply business knowledge to increase productivity. This 30 credit hours degree program is designed for engineers and other professionals who have responsibility for designing, installing, improving, and evaluating large integrated systems. They engineer processes and systems that improve quality and productivity. They work to eliminate the waste of time, money, materials, energy, and other commodities. Unlike many engineering careers which focus on very specific areas, industrial and systems engineers are a versatile group of experts who are trained to tackle a wide array of society’s problems. You will learn how to design, develop and evaluate integrated systems for managing engineering and service processes, including human work factors, quality control, inventory control, logistics, and materials flow and costs analysis. During your studies, expect to develop extensive skills in mathematics, the physical and social sciences, and the core principles and methods of engineering analysis and design. And once you’ve completed this bachelor of science in engineering, you’ll be prepared to work in a range of fields including manufacturing, logistics, health systems, service systems, design, and ergonomics.
