Industrial Engineering Minor
Industrial engineering is concerned with the efficient operation of complex processes, systems, or organizations. The industrial engineering minor focal areas include work design, production planning and control, statistical quality control, facilities design and operations management.
The industrial engineering minor is targeted at other engineering majors, and programs that address complex operations such as forestry, and food production.
