Description

The minor in Industrial Engineering is designed to provide undergraduate engineering students and other science majors in curricula other than Industrial Engineering with the fundamentals of industrial engineering necessary for advanced study in the discipline and/or employment in industrial engineering related occupations. The minor in Industrial Engineering offers a structured program that allows students to acquire some level of expertise in areas common to all industrial engineers as well as a deeper knowledge in at least one specific area of interest.

Requirements

• Complete a minimum of 15 credit hours of ISE designated courses.
• Students must complete 6 hours of required courses and 9 hours of elective courses.
• All courses must be completed with a grade of 'C-' or higher.
