Welcome
to IE !
In
today's complex and competitive world, industrial engineers are
in ever greater demand to design, improve, and operate integrated
systems of people, materials, equipment, and energy. The industrial
engineering discipline applies fundamentals from the mathematical,
physical, and engineering sciences to efficiently design and analyze
large systems that serve industry and government both in manufacturing
and service sectors.
The
undergraduate industrial engineering program at Rutgers provides
students with a broad engineering education along with specialization
in the industrial engineering and manufacturing fields. We
believe that a broad education is necessary to understand the impact
of engineering solutions in a global/societal context. Academic
strength in mathematics, physics, and basic engineering science
is required. Specialization is offered in mathematical modeling,
quality engineering and statistical techniques, computer-aided design,
computer-aided manufacturing, simulation, manufacturing processes,
engineering economics, production planning and control, design of
engineering systems and information technology. Students have
access to state-of-the-art laboratory facilities where hands-on
instruction is emphasized in robotics, machine vision, manufacturing,
automated material handling, quality engineering, electronic and
sensor devices, simulation, and computer information systems.
The
undergraduate program focuses on classroom instruction fostered
by learning in multi-disciplinary project-teams. These teams
frequently formulate and find engineering solutions to real-world
industry problems. The ability to communicate effectively
is emphasized by having students provide both oral and written reports.
IE
graduates contribute to a wide range of endeavors including electronic,
pharmaceutical, and other manufacturing; health services, transportation,
distribution, and communication; and computers, finance, marketing,
and management. Students pursue graduate studies in engineering
and in management at leading institutions.
The
IE faculty are dedicated to excellence in teaching, research, and
professional service. They bring experience, real-life industrial
problems, and enthusiasm to the classroom, setting a standard for
students to follow in their professional careers.
