| The objective of this degree
is to prepare students with a breadth of technical and managerial
skills to make significant immediate contributions in their
jobs. It is directed towards students who have completed a
baccalaureate degree in engineering from an ABET accredited
institution. The Harold and Inge Marcus Department of Industrial
and Manufacturing Engineering is committed to provide the
highest quality graduate programs so that students leaving
the programs will be well prepared for professional activities
in their careers. In a broader sense the department wishes
to assist students in preparation for a technical career in
industrial engineering. In this spirit, the Master of Engineering
in Industrial Engineering program has been created for students
interested in a professional masters degree.
The students pursuing a M. Eng. degree can focus on a broad
range of areas such as Operations Research, Manufacturing,
Ergonomics, Quality Engineering or some combination of these.
A dual-degree in Industrial Engineering and Operations Research
is available, as well as options in Manufacturing Engineering,
Human Factors/Ergonomics Engineering and Quality Engineering.
Thus, a student seeking a M.Eng. degree can obtain one of
the following degrees.
- M. Eng. degree in Industrial Engineering
- M. Eng. degree in Industrial Engineering with Manufacturing
Engineering Option
- M. Eng. degree in Industrial Engineering with Human Factors/Ergonomics
Engineering Option
- M. Eng. degree in Industrial Engineering with Quality
Engineering Option
- M. Eng. dual degree in Industrial Engineering and Operations
Research
The application for enrollment in an option is given in Appendix
A. The requirements for the options in Manufacturing Engineering,
Human Factors / Ergonomics Engineering and Quality Engineering
are given in appendices B, C and D respectively and the requirements
for the dual degree can be found in Appendix E. The options
appear as a statement on the students’ transcripts,
but not on the diplomas, whereas the dual-degree appears on
the diplomas. Students should consult with their advisors
regarding courses to be taken for the options and the dual
degree. All applications for the options and dual-degree
must be submitted to the appropriate authorities, well in
advance of graduation.
