Dual Master of Science in Industrial Engineering (MSIE) and Master of Engineering Management (MEM)

Industrial engineers are concerned with increasing productivity through people, methods, and technology with careful study of the product requirements, design, manufacturing, and information systems. As companies look to reduce costs and raise productivity, they increasingly will turn to industrial engineers to develop efficient processes and reduce costs, delays, and waste. Engineering Management is closely related to Industrial Engineering due to nature of the profession. Engineers seeking to move up the career ladder are getting master's degrees in engineering management. Companies could see greater value added engineers with dual program on MSIE and MEM.

Students must have an undergraduate degree in engineering, science, math, computer science, physical science or any other discipline from an accredited college or university (minimum GPA of 3.0); For students with degrees in fields other than engineering, prerequisite coursework is required prior to beginning the graduate level work.
