Industrial & Manufacturing Engineering / 69 INDUSTRIAL & MANUFACTURING ENGINEERING Petros Gheresus, Ph.D., Interim Department Head Room 1-700 AB, 810-762-7941 pgheresu@kettering.edu MISSION STATEMENT The mission of the Industrial Engineering Program is to produce top-ranked industrial engineers, highly sought after by industry, equipped with the basic knowledge of science, mathematics, and engineering and practical technical and managerial skills necessary to plan, design, implement, and manage productive and quality integrated manufacturing and service delivery systems in a professional manner. Kettering's Industrial Engineering graduates will be expected to be able to work and grow in their profession throughout their lives with a capacity to adapt, flourish and succeed in a continually-evolving workplace. The Department of Industrial & Manufacturing Engineering offers a degree in Industrial Engineering. The program includes a core, concentrate electives,and systems integration courses. The department emphasizes development of the student’s ability to analyze operational requirements and to design processes that systematically integrate customer needs, technology, and economic and social factors for industrial, service, and governmental organizations. INDUSTRIAL ENGINEERING OVERVIEW Industrial Engineering is a discipline known for its breadth of scope and application. The preparation received in industrial engineering studies is valuable in virtually all industrial, commercial and governmental activities which are engaged in the manufacture of a product or the provision of a service. Graduates typically are responsible for the design of integrated systems at one of two levels. The first level may be described as the “human activity systems” level and is concerned with the design of the physical workplace at which human activity occurs. The second level, the “management control system” level, is concerned with planning, measuring and controlling the activities of the organization for the optimal utilization of its resources. The utilization of computers and the development of the associated software are integral parts of both levels of systems design. Industrial Engineers are concerned with systematic design and integration of people, raw materials, facilities, information, and energy to produce safe and quality products and/or services at an affordable cost to the consumer. The Industrial Engineering curriculum develops both the engineering theory and the practical background and people skills necessary to design the optimal productive work and management control systems for an organization. The curriculum features the breadth of coverage characteristic to Industrial Engineering while providing the flexibility for specialization within the discipline in the areas of Computer Systems Integration, Human Factors and Work Design, Quality Assurance and Reliability, Production Control Systems, and Manufacturing Systems Design. The Industrial Engineering curriculum is designed to provide the student with a sound theoretical background while being oriented toward applied problem-solving. Classroom instruction is backed by hands-on application in well-equipped laboratory facilities in Computer Graphics, Computer Software Development, Human Factors (ergonomics), Manufacturing Materials and Processes, Methods Analysis, Networked Microcomputers, and Physical Simulation. PROGRAM EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES The Industrial and Manufacturing Engineering faculty have established the following Program Educational Objectives. • Demonstrate an ability to design, analyze and improve integrated systems for production of goods and services by considering the interfaces between people, materials, information, equipment, economics and/or design. • Distinguish themselves by requiring minimal training, guidance and supervision, accepting more job responsibilities, interacting more effectively with people in a corporate setting, and demonstrating superior project management skills. • Formulate engineering problems, analyze data obtained through designed experimentation and generate solutions to meet desired needs. • Apply appropriate mathematical, computer, and engineering models and tools to improve integrated systems and processes from both theoretical and practical aspects. • Incorporate ethical and social issues into engineering-related decisions within the context of professional responsibilities. • Engage in life-long learning for professional development.
