The Industrial Engineering degree is one of the most flexible engineering degrees offered by the College of Engineering. This flexibility allows you to tailor your program of study to meet your individual career goals. IE students who take the Business Engineering Option can easily add a Business and Entrepreneurship minor from the College of Business. Also, because of the close association between the industrial engineering and manufacturing engineering programs at OSU, many students elect to pursue a Dual Major or Double Degree in these two programs. What Do Industrial Engineers Do? Industrial engineers (IEs) apply science, mathematics, and engineering methods to complex system integration and operations. Because these systems are so large and complex, IEs need to have knowledge and skills in a wide variety of disciplines, the ability to work well with people, and a broad, systems perspective. Industrial engineers use their knowledge and skills to improve systematic processes through the use of statistical analysis, interpersonal communication, design, planning, quality control, operations management, computer simulation, and problem solving. As systems integrators, industrial engineers analyze and design facilities (buildings, rooms, equipment, infrastructures, etc.), material handling systems, manufacturing and production systems, information systems and individual and group workplaces. In the operations realm, IEs analyze, design, and manage manufacturing and service processes, production systems planning and control, resource allocation and scheduling, personnel assignment and scheduling, quality assurance, inventory control and system and personnel safety.
