Offline students may not need to watch the videos listed. Industrial Engineering Definition from Industrial Engineering Institute Industrial engineering is concerned with the design, improvement and installation of integrated systems of people, materials, information, equipment and energy. It draws upon specialized knowledge and skill in the mathematical, physical, and social sciences together with the principles and methods of engineering analysis and design, to specify, predict, and evaluate the results to be obtained from such systems. ("About IISE", n.d.) Industrial Engineering Other definitions Industrial engineering is the branch of engineering that involves figuring out how to make or do things better. An Industry is the production of goods or related services within an economy Engineering is the use of scientific principles to design and build machines, structures, and other things, including bridges, roads, vehicles, and buildings. Industrial Engineering Other definitions Engineering is basically designing, building, and maintaining a system. Mechanical Engineering: mechanical systems Computer Engineering: computing systems (note: look for definition of computing) Civil Engineering: Physical structures for civilians Industrial Engineering: ??? Industrial & Systems Engineering Allied and Integrated Fields Source: Rochester Institute of Technology Industrial Engineering Education an Industrial and Systems Engineering education offers the best of both worlds: an education in both engineering and business.

Industrial engineers work to ELIMINATE WASTE of time, money, materials, person-hours, machine time, energy and other resources that do not generate value IE’s reduce production costs, increasing efficiency, improving the quality of products and services, ensuring worker health and safety, protecting the environment and complying with government regulations. What Industrial Engineers Do (cont’d) Other engineering disciplines apply skills to very specific areas. IE gives practitioners the opportunity to work in a variety of businesses. The most distinctive aspect of industrial and systems engineering is the flexibility it offers. Whether it's shortening a rollercoaster line, streamlining an operating room in the hospital, distributing products worldwide, or manufacturing superior automobiles, these challenges share the common goal of saving companies money and increasing efficiencies. What Industrial Engineers Do SCOPE The degree of industrial engineering is evidenced by the wide range of such activities as research in biotechnology, development of new concepts of information processing, design of automated factories, and operation of incentive wage plans. What Industrial Engineers Do DIVERSITY Industrial engineering is a diverse (various) discipline concerned with the design, improvement, installation, and management of integrated systems of people, materials, and equipment for all kinds of manufacturing and service operations. Industrial engineering is concerned with performance measures and standards, research of new products and product applications, ways to improve use of scarce (limited) resources and many other problem solving adventures. What Industrial Engineers Do DIVERSITY (cont’d) An Industrial Engineer may be employed in almost any type of industry, business or institution, from retail establishments to manufacturing plants to government offices to hospitals. Because their skills can be used in almost any type of organization, and also industrial engineers are usually distributed among industries than other engineers. For example, industrial engineers work in insurance companies, banks, hospitals, retail organizations, airlines, government agencies, consulting firms, transportation, construction, public utilities, social service, electronics, personnel, sales, facilities design, manufacturing, processing, and warehousing. What Industrial Engineers Do EFFICIENCY Industrial engineers determine the most effective ways for an organization to use the basic factors of production - people, machines, materials, and energy. They are more concerned with people and methods of business organization than engineers in other specialties. To solve organizational, production, and related problems most efficiently, industrial engineers design data processing systems and apply mathematical analysis such as operations research. What Industrial Engineers Do EFFICIENCY (cont’d) They also develop management control systems to help in financial planning and cost analysis, design production planning and control systems to coordinate activities and control product quality, and design or improve systems for the physical distribution of goods and services. Industrial engineers conduct surveys to find plant locations with the best combination of raw materials, and transportation. They also develop wage and salary administration systems and job evaluation programs. What Industrial Engineers Do ACTIVITIES Install data processing, management information, wage incentive systems. Develop performance standards, job evaluation, and wage and salary programs. Research new products and product applications. Improve productivity through application of technology and human factors. Select operating processes and methods to do a task with proper tools and equipment Design facilities, management systems, operating procedures Improve planning and allocation of limited resources What Industrial Engineers Do ACTIVITIES Enhance plant environment and quality of people's working life Evaluate reliability and quality performance Implement office systems, procedures, and policies Analyze complex business problems by operations research Conduct organization studies, plant location surveys, and system effectiveness studies Study potential markets for goods and services, raw material sources, labor supply, energy resources, financing, and taxes. What Industrial Engineers Do CAREER OPPORTUNITIES FOR INDUSTRIAL ENGINEERS Industrial engineers are the “problem solvers” in all organizations. Career opportunities for industrial engineering are limitless. A sample list of career opportunities for industrial engineers include: Manufacturing: regardless of the product manufactured, every manufacturing company needs Industrial Engineers to plan the facility, perform economic analyses, plan and control production, manage people, handle safety issues, improve quality, evaluate performance, etc. Health Services: hospitals and clinics need Industrial Engineers to perform cost/benefit analyses, schedule workload, manage people, evaluate safety concerns, design and maintain facilities, etc. What Industrial Engineers Do CAREER OPPORTUNITIES FOR INDUSTRIAL ENGINEERS Transportation: airlines, ground transportation, trucking, and warehousing companies need Industrial Engineers to design the best schedules and routes, perform economic analyses, manage crews, etc. Financial: banks and other savings and lending institutions need Industrial Engineers to design financial plans, perform economic analyses, etc. Government: local and federal governments need Industrial Engineers to design and enforce safety systems, environmental policies, plan for and operate in a number of organizations. Consulting: Industrial Engineers may work as consultants to help design and analyze a variety of systems including information systems, manufacturing and service systems. Preliminary Data Top industries where UPLB IE graduates work Warehousing, logistics and 1.
