  1. Industrial Engineering

    Systems of Systems Engineering Profession
  2. What do IE’s Do? 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
  3. Are You an Industrial Engineering At Heart? Are you drawn towards: People Solving problems System-level analysis Complexity Unstructured problems Leading diverse groups
  4. Do IEs Have Impact? John Dasburg - CEO Northwest Airlines Michael Eskew - CEO UPS Henry Ford - founder of Ford Motor Company Joe Forehand - CEO Accenture Lee Iacocca - former CEO Chrysler
  5. More IEs with Impact Charles O. Holiday - CEO DuPont Dick Kovacevich - CEO Wells Fargo Edward Whitacre, Jr - Chairman and CEO of AT&T YunJong Yong - CEO Samsung Electronics Mike Duke - President and CEO, Wal-Mart USA
  6. Even More IEs With Impact Drew Brees - NFL Quarterback Charles Armstrong - President of Seattle Mariners Tom Landry - Former Dallas Cowboys Coach MajGen Robert L. Caslen, Jr-Deputy Director, War on Terrorism
  7. How Come I’ve Never Heard of IE Before Sometimes called systems engineering or operations engineering or even enterprise engineering First autonomous department established in 1908. ME started in 1817, Civil 1835, Electrical 1882.
  8. How Many IEs Are There? There are 276 accredited ME Programs There are 110 accredited IE programs
  9. The World Needs More IEs! Currently there are about 201,000 IEs Projected growth 14-20% between 2006-2016. The Department of Labor predicts that by 2016, the US will need: 89,000new Industrial Engineers (up from 71,000) in the 2004 study 45,000 Electrical Engineers (3-6%) 114,000 Civil Engineers (14-20%) 58,000 Mechanical Engineers (3-6%) Supply and Demand is working for IEs!
  10. Do IEs Make Any Money? Source: Career Journal.com
  11. Who Makes Money?
  12. What Is Industrial Engineering? Operations Research Manufacturing Systems Engineering Process Engineering Human Factors Quality Control Healthcare systems Entrepreneurship Management Business Minor
  13. The inside scoop Insights from IEs working in different jobs in different industries.
  14. Operations Research 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
  15. Manufacturing 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?
  16. Systems/Process Engineering 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.
  17. Human Factors 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.
  18. Process and Quality Control 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.
  19. IEs Make Things Better 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.
  20. What Type of Classes Do IEs Take? Regular Core Design for Manufacturing Human Factors/Ergonomics Engineering Economics Information System Design Process Engineering Quality Control Senior Project
  21. What is Different About IE Courses? Project-intensive Lots of reading Less emphasis on obscure mathematics, more emphasis on applications Tends towards a business focus
  22. What Characteristics Do IEs Have? Friendly, outgoing Wide interests Often involved in extra-curricular activities Like to work in teams Have a broad, engaged worldview Love learning new things
