Introduction to Industrial Engineering

Introduction to Industrial Engineering


Description:

Introduction to industrial engineering with regards to the historical background of engineering and industrial engineering, fundamentals and related disciplines of industrial engineering, and the directions of industrial engineering.

Overview:

        Industrial engineering is an engineering profession that is concerned with the optimization of complex processes, systems, or organizations by developing, improving, and implementing integrated systems of people, money, knowledge, information, and equipment. Industrial engineers use specialized knowledge and skills in the mathematical, physical, and social sciences, together with the principles and methods of engineering analysis and design, to specify, predict, and evaluate the results obtained from systems and processes. From these results, they are able to create new systems, processes, or situations for the useful coordination of labor, materials, and machines and also improve the quality and productivity of systems, physical or social. Depending on the sub-specialties involved, industrial engineering may also overlap with, operations research, systems engineering, manufacturing engineering, production engineering, supply chain engineering, management science, management engineering, financial engineering, ergonomics or human factors engineering, safety engineering, logistics engineering, and others.
