Caslen, Jr - Deputy Director, War on Terrorism Sometimes called systems engineering or operations engineering or even enterprise engineering First autonomous department established in 1908. ME started in 1817, Civil 1835, Electrical 1882. Employed Engineers, NSF 2000 There are 276 accredited ME Programs Aeronatuical 6% Other 15% Civil 16% Sales 7% There are 110 accredited IE programs Computer 5% Mechanical Electrical/ 16% electronics 22% Industrial 13% Currently there are about 201,000 IEs Projected growth 14-20% between 2006-2016. The Department of Labor predicts that by 2016, the US will need: ◦ 89,000 new Industrial Engineers (up from 71,000) in the 2004 study ◦ 45,000 Electrical Engineers (3-6%) ◦ 114,000 Civil Engineers (14-20%) ◦ 58,000 Mechanical Engineers (3-6%) Supply and Demand is working for IEs!

Involves mathematical analysis and optimization ◦ Finding the best arrangement of routes for an airline or delivery organization ◦ Figuring out how to get all the thousands of supplies to a manufacturing plant or army with the least cost Industrial Engineers are often in charge of laying out or redesigning manufacturing lines and designing manufacturing processes ◦ Where should the next factory be built? ◦ How can an assembly line be reconfigured to account for the next product model? Industrial Engineers learn how to analyze the flow of information, materials and people through a system to improve performance ◦ Analyze how the paperwork flow for a government program can be improved ◦ Model the flow of people through an emergency room to improve safety and performance. Industrial Engineers study how people think, move and respond to input in order to design systems that work well. ◦ Ergonomics is the study of people physical capabilities ◦ Human Factors emphasizes mental capabilities ◦ Human-Systems Design is the study of how people interact with mechanical and computer systems. Industrial Engineers know how to use statistical sampling to analyze the quality of a product ◦ Many companies employee IE’s to measure and track their final products ◦ The trend is to improve quality by improving the design and manufacturing process, rather than fixing problems at the end. Industrial Engineers specialize in looking at the broader picture to find the root cause of problems. They often are put in direct charge of managing and directing changes that directly affect worker’s lives. They understand how to integrate people into designs.
