  1. Introduction lectureIEM program Leo van der Wegen (on behalf of Erwin Hans, Director of TBK and IEM programs) September 2013

  2. Contents • IEM • IEM specializations • Structure of the program • Electives • Role of specialization coordinator • Fraud is NOT tolerated • Questions • Premaster program • Specialization specific information

  3. Industrial Engineering & Management (IEM) • Improving processes and systems • Modeling and quantitative analysis paradigm • Applied in a variety of fields (manufacturing, finance, logistics, telecommunications, healthcare) • Multiple objectives (quality, service, risk management, productivity, or safety)

  4. IEM • Multidisciplinary, with an open mind for: • Technology used in processes • Human behavior (individual and social) • Conditions in the environment of the organization (competitors, regulations, or government policies)

  5. Industrial Engineers • Work on real-world problems • Good math and quantitative skills • Combine knowledge from different disciplines for designing solutions • Project-management expertise • Communication skills • Creative, resourceful

  6. IEM specializations • Production and Logistic Management • Financial Engineering and Mgmt • (Information Technology and Mgmt) • Health Care Technology and Mgmt • In fact each student has an individual program to a certain extent.

  7. ITM specialization discontinued in 2013-2014 • In case you finished a premaster program to start the IEM-ITM specialization this year, please contact the specialization coordinator FonsWijnhoven a.s.a.p. • RA 3341 • Telephone: 053-4893853 • a.b.j.m.wijnhoven@utwente.nl

  8. IEM specialization coordinators • FEM: Dr. Berend Roorda • HCTM: Dr. Marjan Hummel • PLM: Dr. Leo van der Wegen

  9. Standard program • See Course Schedule IEM 2013-2014: http://www.utwente.nl/mb/en/education/Programmes/master/iem/studyprogramme/studyprogIEM.docx • You have a lot of freedom to adapt it to your personal interests!

  10. 120 EC • 3 mandatory common courses: 15 ec • 7-8 specialization-specific courses: 35-40 ec • 2 equalization courses: 10 ec • 6-5 electives: 30-25 ec • Master’s thesis: 30 ec • 4 quartiles of 15 ec = 60 ec/year • 15 ec = 420 hrs = 10 weeks • Each quarter has 3 courses of 5 ec

  11. Common courses (mandatory) • Introduction to IEM • Empirical research and data analysis • Preparation thesis

  12. Equalization courses • To repair deficiencies, we have two so-called “equalization courses”, early in the program • For students who have a Dutch BSc in IEM: these are electives • For other students: these courses are selected with you (no electives) as preparation for the specialization courses (Discuss with specialization coordinator!)

  13. Electives • Which electives can you choose? Other IEM specialization courses and (almost) any master course offered by EWI, CTW, or TNW (there may be constrains from their side (prior knowledge) or from our side (overlap)) • Master courses from other (inter)national technical programmes • Discuss with specialization coordinator!

  14. Electives (2) “Industrial Engineering” is a much broader field at the University of Twente • Applied Mathematics • Business Info Technology • Computer Science • Mechanical Engineering • Civil Engineering & Mgmt • Industrial Design Engineering • Biomedical Engineering

  15. Electives (3)Study abroad • Erasmus programme • Contact Inge van Haare and specialization coordinator in an early stage • Approval from examination committee needed • Examples: Linköping, Gothenburg

  16. Preparation Thesis Start in first year M1.2 (Intro IEM) Portfolio: individual assignments for (research) orientation during the year: • Approved study programme • Research about job areas and positions for IEM graduates • Assessment of a finished MSc thesis • Review of a scientific paper

  17. Preparation Thesis (2) In second year: (M2.1) Portfolio • Obtaining Master assignment (M2) • Motivation letter for the master assignment • Individual study programme and the related agreements with the specialization coordinator • Overview of study grades and study progress

  18. Preparation Thesis (3) In second year: (M2.2) • Finalizing portfolio • Preparing Master assignment • Literature study • Organisation visits • Plan of approach • Grading preparation course by thesis supervisor

  19. PreparationThesis (4) • Individual course • No lectures • Canbefinishedanyquartile • Youcanformally start your master thesis project ONLY IF this course is finished, i.eifyour plan of approach is approvedbyyour thesis supervisor.

  20. Preparation Thesis (5) • MSc syllabus available in November via the Intro IEM Bb site • Start M1 acitivities in Intro IEM 2013 • For studentsstarting IEM in February 2014, instructionswill follow

  21. Final project • Final projects are usually conducted outside the university • Challenging: real organization, real problem, so you need to provide a real contribution • Start early finding an internship for your final project (M2.1 or earlier) • Ask practical advice on resume, letter, contacts, etc.

  22. Final project coordinators • FEM: Dr. Berend Roorda • (ITM: Dr. Fons Wijnhoven) • HCTM: Dr. Marjan Hummel • PLM: Dr. Marco Schutten

  23. Individual program adjustments • If you have ideas about your individual study program that go beyond the standard conditions: make a proposal! We welcome your initiatives • Discuss with specialization coordinator or program director • (You always complete 120 ec, so there are no exemptions)

  24. Proactive • We welcome diversity and invite ideas for taking courses • Some courses will require more than the standard workload for some individuals (and less for others) • Be proactive when it comes to planning, electives, required advance knowledge, etc.

  25. ROLE OF SPECIALIZATION COORDINATOR (1) • Advice on and approval of • Pre-master courses • Equalization courses • Study plans • Electives • Specialization coordinator sends this information to BOZ (student administration) accompanied by a study plan

  26. STUDY PLAN • What courses are studied when? • No more than 4 courses per quarter • Check preliminary knowledge • Study seriously! • Note: There will always be some knowledge gaps, so, if necessary, search for literature and study a topic yourself!

  27. ROLE OF SPECIALIZATION COORDINATOR (2) • Advice on individual master programme, e.g. • Combination of 2 specializations • Taking courses at other universities • Study abroad for one semester • Approval via examination committee, positive advice from specialization coordinator needed

  28. FRAUD IS NOT TOLERATED • Using unauthorized aids like mobile phones or calculators • Consulting someone else’s notes • Committing forgery • Plagiarism = copying without crediting the source (internet, books, articles, reports from other students,…) • Punishment: exclusion from exams for a whole year!

  29. Questions, where to go? • Equalization courses, electives, planning your pre-master courses: specialization coordinator • Other questions about planning, rules, personal circumstances: study advisor (Cornelis ten Napel) • Other issues: program coordinator (Mrs. Bernadette Pol) or program director

  30. Premaster program • 30 ec bachelor courses • Math, Probability & statistics • Courses specific for specialization • Maximum two exams per course • Pass within one year! • Start with IEM either in February 2014 or September 2014 (easier!)

  31. Specialization specific information • PLM • FEM • HCTM • Some special “topics”: • Technology Venturing and Innovation Management (BA) • Maintenance (ME) • ITM courses offered by BIT

  32. Specialization specific information • Remark: There exists a strict separation of Bachelor and Master programs • If Corporate Finance or SMOM are equalization courses for you and you did not pass them before August 31, 2013, you have to take the following courses: • CF IEM MSc (201300019) • SMOM MSc (201300095)

  34. PRODUCTION AND LOGISTIC MANAGEMENT • Focuses on design and control of logistic processes in the entire supply chain e.g. production planning, transportation planning, network design, purchasing, reverse logistics,… • Modeling, quantitative analysis • Performance oriented (costs, service,…) • Application of operations management in (i) healthcare (ii) service logistics

  35. PROGRAM • Two courses are mainly method oriented (Discrete optimization of business processes, Simulation) • Most other courses focus on areas within logistics and on applications (Warehousing, APP, Purchasing, SCTM, RLRM, OHCP2,…) • Equalization courses (10 ec) • Master’s thesis (30 ec) • Electives
