Key Summary
The Department of Industrial Engineering and Management offers an undergraduate degree program leading to a Bachelor of Science in Industrial Engineering and a graduate degree program leading the Master of Engineering Management degree.
The Industrial Engineering Program extends over a four-year period and is offered exclusively on a daytime, on-campus basis. The program is offered in nine terms whereby eight terms are 12/13-week Fall/Spring terms given over four years, and one eight-week summer term taken during the third year of the program in which students are required to participate in a practical training program with a local, regional or international organization.
