BS IE Curriculum

The BS in Industrial Engineering curriculum is a four-year program that progressively develops student skills with courses in math, science, statistics, operations research, design, and many other important Industrial Engineering topics.  Students are advised to pay close attention to course prerequisites that determine the required sequence for completing the courses.  Students will not be able to register for courses without first completing the necessary prerequisites.  Also, be aware that major courses are offered only once a year in the semesters shown below, so plan accordingly.
