Industrial Engineering Technology
The current demand for industrial engineers
is high, but the supply of credentialed industrial engineers is limited.
The trend toward an automated workplace and demands for greater efficiency
in business and industry further enhance employment prospects for industrial
engineers.
Coursework
The coursework for the Bachelor of Science in Industrial
Engineering Technology provides a solid understanding of materials, design,
statistics, operations research, information systems, methods engineering,
manufacturing engineering, cost accounting, and production economy. Emphasis
is placed on basic engineering and applied science, with the remainder
of the program devoted to the humanities and those aspects of management
pertinent to organizing and managing systems to produce and distribute
services and products.Through the selection of electives, the curriculum
offers options for specialization in a number of areas, providing the
student with a sound basis for graduate study in management and industrial
engineering.
Core courses include chemistry, calculus, physics, computer programming,
principles of economics, technical writing, and coursework in various
engineering principles. In the final year, students complete three levels
of project design in a team setting.
