Graduate Studies in Industrial Engineering
Streamlining Operations
Because of the breadth of the Industrial Engineering profession, sectors such as manufacturing, warehousing, healthcare, finance, logistics and government all depend on the skills of industrial engineers to operate efficiently and competitively. Our degree programs are innovative and challenging, and IE students are given the education and resources to develop groundbreaking studies that impact their community. Our graduate program is ranked in the top 20 among public institutions by US News & World Report, and our master's program was voted "best supply chain option" by Intelligent Magazine.
Master of Science
The Industrial Engineering Masters program is offered with both a thesis and non-thesis option and can be completed in as little as two semesters when pursued as part of the Combined BS/MS program. The M.S. program prepares graduates for careers in both industry and academia.
