Industrial Engineering
The technology behind the technology

Plan it, organize it, make it more efficient
Industrial engineers improve organized effort by enhancing efficiency and understanding how components fit together. They use their technical skills to improve systems for producing, transporting, and delivering products and services. Often called the “technology behind the technology,” they integrate information, materials, people, and equipment to make companies innovative and successful.
Our faculty are leading efforts to leverage powerful software tools to analyze and improve the way organizations design, produce, and distribute their goods and services. We are also embracing the increasing collaboration between humans and machines, and are developing processes to streamline industrial automation.
