Industrial engineering is a discipline of engineering that deals with the optimisation of processes, organisations and systems within manufacturing operations. As an industrial engineer, you will work across several areas, such as engineering management. You will be aiming to increase efficiency, improve quality control, work towards sustainability and comply with the appropriate regulations.
During an Industrial Engineering degree, you will cover a range of areas. These will vary from the basics of engineering to specific sub-discipline modules. Some examples of the modules you might study are:
- Engineering Science
- Project Management for Engineers
- Industrial Systems
- Quality Management Systems
- Operations and Plant Management
