Industrial Engineering

Industrial engineering deals not only with things but also with people, finance, information, and the environment. Industrial engineers answer complex questions:

  • How can we improve safety, quality, productivity, and service?
  • What can be automated?
  • What products or services should we offer?  What price should we charge?
  • What materials and production methods should we use?
  • How much inventory do we need? 
  • How can we use our historic data to improve our business?

Industrial Technology

Industrial technology is a field that combines manufacturing technology with engineering in order to improve production by making it more efficient. The work of industrial engineering technologists and technicians is versatile and applicable to a variety of projects. For example, in supply chain management, they help businesses minimize inventory costs; in quality assurance, they help with customer satisfaction; and in project management, they help to control costs and maximize efficiencies.
