The Bachelor of Science and Honors Bachelor of Science degrees in Industrial Engineering are accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, http://www.ABET.org.
Industrial engineering is the application of science, mathematics, and engineering methods to complex system integration and operation. Because the systems with which they work are so large and complex, industrial engineers (IEs) must develop expertise in a wide variety of disciplines, the ability to work well with people, and a broad, systems perspective. All IE graduate students learn advanced methods of system integration and operation. IE graduates analyze and design facilities, material handling systems, manufacturing processes, information systems, and workstations. They also develop, apply, and oversee policies, procedures, and algorithms for production planning, inventory control, resource allocation and scheduling, quality assurance, and supply chain management.
Program Educational Objectives—Industrial Engineering
Note: The Bachelor of Science and Honors Bachelor of Science degrees in Industrial Engineering are accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, http://www.ABET.org, which requires stated program educational objectives and student outcomes to support these.
OSU Industrial Engineering graduates receive an innovative education, and within 3 to 5 years of graduation will have:
- Recognized and created value to organizations through the analysis, evaluation, and improvement of engineered systems and processes using appropriate industrial engineering methods and tools.
- Communicated effectively across disciplines and actively contributed to a culture of managing and/or leading activities in support of organizational and personal goals and objectives.
- Solved problems through the application of structured and unstructured industrial engineering methodologies.
- Designed, developed, or implemented innovative systems and processes by applying principles of engineering.
