Industrial engineering is a discipline that encompasses the analysis, development, improvement, implementation, and evaluation of integrated systems and their components, including materials, information, energy, people, money, time, equipment, and associated processes. Industrial engineering draws upon a variety of disciplines, from mathematics to psychology, from communications to computer science, and from production management to process control. Industrial engineers design efficient, productive systems in a wide range of business, industrial, and governmental settings. This program brings students to bear the principles and techniques of engineering design on many aspects of life and seeks to specify, predict, and evaluate the results derived from these systems or processes.
This programme is widely taught as full time, part-time, distance or sandwich at most levels.

Students are assessed by any combination of three assessment methods: quizzes/interim/mid-semester tests, and project works completed throughout the course; and written examinations at the end of each course. The exact mix of these methods differs between universities, subject areas, years of study and individual courses. Most degree projects are typically assessed on the basis of a written dissertation during your final year of study.
Industrial Engineers learn to use engineering and scientific principles to design, manufacture, or improve systems that involve both goods and services. Once a graduate you could go on to work in one of the following roles:
