Department of INDUSTRIAL ENGINEERINGFAMU-FSU College of EngineeringChair: Ben Wang; Professors: Awoniyi, Braswell, Wang; Associate Professors: Pignatiello, Zhang; Assistant Professors: Okoli, Simpson; Visiting Professor: Li; Visiting Associate Professors: Liang, Owusu; Instructor: Cutwright; Adjunct Professors: Booeshaghi, Braswell; Adjunct Instructor: Moshir Industrial engineering (IE) provides a broad technical background with special emphasis on manufacturing systems, computer modeling, costs, quality, management, and human factors. Industrial engineering draws upon specialized knowledge and skills in the mathematical, physical, and social sciences, together with the principles and methods of engineering design and analysis, to specify, predict, and evaluate industrial systems. The program of study includes engineering analysis for the optimization of industrial systems, design of man-machine systems, and the scientific management of activities. Specialized training is available in the use of modern engineering tools and techniques such as computer-aided design (CAD), computer integrated manufacturing (CIM), and ergonomic (human factors) engineering. Industrial engineers (IEs) pursue careers in manufacturing, service industries, and government. In addition, many IEs are now being employed in nontraditional fields such as hospitals, banks, insurance, and information processing. The present and future demand for IEs appears to be very high. IEs are increasingly being called upon to act as productivity catalysts in manufacturing and service organizations in order to meet regional, national, and international demand and competition. State of Florida Common Course PrerequisitesThe State of Florida has identified common course prerequisites for this University degree program. These prerequisites are lower-level courses that are required for preparation for the University major prior to a student receiving a baccalaureate degree from The Florida State University. They may be taken either at a community college or in a university lower-division program. It is preferred that these common course prerequisites be completed in the freshman and sophomore years. The following lists the common course prerequisites or approved substitutions necessary for this degree program:
Note: courses marked with an asterisk (*) have at least one acceptable substitute. Contact the department for details. Requirements for a Major in Industrial EngineeringA candidate for the bachelor of science degree in industrial engineering (BSIE) is required to successfully complete the following courses, in addition to the other College of Engineering core requirements:
Industrial engineering majors are required to consult with their IE academic adviser before enrolling for the next academic term. Students must obtain current IE requirements and course offering schedules from the IE department. Grade RequirementsIn addition to University and college requirements regarding grades and grade point average (GPA), the Department of Industrial Engineering (IE) requires that the IE major achieve a grade within the "C" range or higher for all required IE courses. ABET Engineering CriteriaThe BSIE curriculum is designed to comply with the current ABET criteria for accrediting engineering programs. The BSIE curriculum has the following four educational objectives:
To achieve these curricular objectives, all industrial engineering students must demonstrate or exhibit specific graduate attributes or program outcomes. Students are instructed to contact their academic advisor or visit the departmental website at http://www.ie.eng.fsu.edu to obtain the current list of industrial engineering program outcomes.
