IEs make processes better in the following ways: More efficient and more profitable business
practices Better customer service and product quality Improved efficiency Increased ability to do more with less Making work safer, faster, easier, and more
rewarding Helping companies produce more products
quickly Making the world safer through better designed
products Reducing costs associated with new
technologies

What Is Industrial Engineering?
Insights from IEs working in different jobs in different industries.
The inside scoop
Involves mathematical analysis and optimization◦ Finding the best arrangement of routes for an
airline or delivery organization◦ Figuring out how to get all the thousands of
supplies to a manufacturing plant or army with the least cost
Operations Research
Industrial Engineers are often in charge of laying out or redesigning manufacturing lines and designing manufacturing processes◦ Where should the next factory be built?◦ How can an assembly line be reconfigured to
account for the next product model?
Manufacturing
Industrial Engineers learn how to analyze the flow of information, materials and people through a system to improve performance◦ Analyze how the paperwork flow for a
government program can be improved◦ Model the flow of people through an emergency
room to improve safety and performance.
Systems/Process Engineering
Industrial Engineers study how people think, move and respond to input in order to design systems that work well.◦ Ergonomics is the study of people physical
capabilities◦ Human Factors emphasizes mental capabilities◦ Human-Systems Design is the study of how
people interact with mechanical and computer systems.
Human Factors
Industrial Engineers know how to use statistical sampling to analyze the quality of a product◦ Many companies employee IE’s to
measure and track their final products
◦ The trend is to improve quality by improving the design and manufacturing process, rather than fixing problems at the end.
Process and Quality Control
Industrial Engineers specialize in looking at the broader picture to find the root cause of problems.
They often are put in direct charge of managing and directing changes that directly affect worker’s lives.
They understand how to integrate people into designs.
IEs Make Things Better

What Type of Classes Do IEs Take?
Project-intensive Lots of reading Less emphasis on obscure mathematics,
more emphasis on applications Tends towards a business focus
What is Different About IE Courses?
Friendly, outgoing Wide interests Often involved in extra-
curricular activities Like to work in teams Have a broad, engaged
worldview Love learning new things
