Systems Engineering and Industrial Engineering
Introductory Paragraph Placeholder
Topics
Industrial engineering is concerned with the design, improvement and installation of integrated systems of people, materials, information, equipment and energy. It draws upon specialized knowledge and skill 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 to be obtained from such systems. (Institute of Industrial Engineers, IIE)
Industrial engineering embodies several of the complementary aspects with systems engineering (ie Production Planning and Analysis, Continuous Process Improvement, etc.) and as part of the engineered systems domain (Production Control, Supply Chain Management, Operations Planning and Preparation, Operations Management, etc.) as depicted in Figure 2.
This knowledge area covers the overarching aspects of industrial engineering and describes the synergies between IE and SE.
Topics The topics included in this knowledge area are:
- Overview of Industrial Engineering
- Industrial Engineering Body of Knowledge
