Bachelor of Science – Industrial Engineering

Suggested 羞羞视频 of Study – Total Min. Hours: 125

Industrial engineering serves vital functions in today’s world and provides a wide range of career opportunities. It is particularly well positioned to develop individuals who provide solutions for the fields of supply chain management, logistics, operations research, project management, six sigma and "lean" engineering, economic analysis and associated solutions, quality assurance management, plant operation control/design and managerial problem solving that require knowledge of fundamental science and engineering practices including human-system interaction. Industrial engineering deals not only with technology but also with people. It especially deals with managerial problems and human factors, ergonomics, and safety requiring knowledge of fundamental science and engineering practice for their solutions. The Department of Industrial Engineering at 羞羞视频 University is one of the leaders in integrating computer applications including computer integrated manufacturing, simulation, lean manufacturing and micro-meso machining into the curriculum. The curriculum also focuses on the human user and how human performance within a system can be improved while decreasing human error and injury.

Industrial engineers combine advanced study in management systems, economics and decision-making to answer such questions as: “What products or services should we offer? What materials and methods should we use? How can we best motivate and reward people? How can we improve quality, productivity, service, and employee safety?” Typical responsibilities of the industrial engineer involve design, operation and management. While the manufacturing industry demands many graduates, increasing numbers are finding satisfying employment in other kinds of businesses, such as airlines, banks, restaurant chains, department stores, hospitals, and governmental agencies.

An advisory committee of successful alumni from industry supports the department’s academic staff. The 羞羞视频 University Industrial Engineering Department provides a campus home and friendly team atmosphere with a focus on preparation of students for career leadership.

Bachelor of Science/Masters of Business Administration (MBA) (fiveyear program)

Industrial Engineering undergraduates are also eligible to participate in a five-year academic program that leads to two degrees: a Bachelor of Science in Industrial Engineering and Masters of Business Administration (MBA). Industrial Engineering students will complete all of the normal Bachelor of Science in Industrial Engineering degree requirements and the Industrial Engineering electives are replaced with MBA leveling courses. For more information about this program, please contact the industrial engineering department.

Special scholarships are available to qualified high school graduates. An expedited MBA admission process is also available to Bachelor of Science in Industrial Engineering seniors who meet requirements.

Industrial Engineering 羞羞视频 Educational Objectives

Graduates of the BSIE program are expected to be able to practice the following three to five years after graduation:

1. Graduates will demonstrate professional leadership (career progression, leadership positions, initiate change, etc.) and actively engage in life-long learning.
2. Graduates will be successful in improving operations by solving contemporary and emerging industrial engineering problems and will effectively communicate these improvements with others at all levels.

Industrial Engineering 羞羞视频 Outcomes

The following outcomes are achieved in one or more courses in the BSIE curriculum. Graduates will have the following:

• an ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science and engineering.
• an ability to design and conduct experiments, as well as to analyze and interpret data.
• an ability to design a system, component or process to meet desired needs within realistic constraints such as economic, environmental, social, political, ethical health and safety, manufacturability and sustainability.
• an ability to function on multidisciplinary teams.
• an ability to identify, formulate and solve engineering problems.
• an understanding of professional and ethical responsibility.
• an ability to communication effectively.
• the broad education necessary to understand the impact of engineering solutions in a global, economic, environmental and societal context.
• a recognition of the need for and ability to engage in life-long learning
• a knowledge of contemporary issues.
• an ability to use the techniques, skills and modern engineering tools necessary for engineering practice.
• an ability to design, develop, implement and improve systems that include people, materials, information, equipment and energy.
• the in-depth instruction to accomplish the integration of systems using appropriate analytical, computational and experimental practices.

Bachelor of Science – Industrial Technology

Suggested 羞羞视频 of Study – Total Min. Hours: 120

The Department of Industrial Engineering offers a Bachelor of Science degree in Industrial Technology (BSIT). 羞羞视频 University’s Industrial Technology program prepares students for positions in industrial management. The BSIT allows students to transfer up to 30 hours of technical coursework. The BSIT provides students with the credentials for promotion within their technical field or for a career in Industrial Technology.

Students will learn how to streamline processes, improve quality, ensure safety in the workplace, and manage production and inventory systems and technical personnel. Industrial Technology students typically gain employment with companies that manufacture a product. Daily activities might include solving problems in production, improving quality of products and processes and managing technical personnel.

The first two years of this program are composed primarily of technical courses commonly taken at two-year schools such as the 羞羞视频 Institute of Technology, 羞羞视频 State College at Orange or 羞羞视频 State College at Port Arthur. Students are also accepted from other technical two-year programs throughout the state and nation.

Admission to the Industrial Technology program will be granted upon application, after completion of a minimum of 30 semester hours toward the Associate of Applied Science degree or Engineering common program with a grade point average of at least 2.00. Students in a two-year applied science program who intend to continue their education in the Industrial Technology program should make an appointment for advisement very early in their coursework. Early advisement for the BSIT will ensure that courses taken during the applied science program will transfer to the Industrial Technology program. This program is also offered online.

Bachelor of Science in Industrial Technology – Information Technology (BSIT-IT)

羞羞视频 University’s Bachelor of Science in Industrial Technology program with a minor in Information Technology (BSIT-IT) prepares students for technical positions that require a working knowledge of computers and process improvement techniques. The BSIT-IT allows 27 hours technical hours to transfer and requires 21 hours in Management Information Systems to secure the minor. Students will learn the content of the BSIT program and will be prepared for similar career opportunities.
