Master of Science in Industrial Engineering

The Master of Science in Industrial Engineering is a STEM program designed to provide students with fundamental knowledge in multiple areas of industrial engineering. A student may pursue a broad program of study or they may specialize in areas such as general industrial engineering, manufacturing systems, ergonomics/human factors, or advanced analytics/operations research.

Students may select from different options to complete their program, including course work (10 classes), capstone (9 courses and an application-oriented research paper), or thesis (8 courses and a thesis). Students work with an advisor to determine the best option and courses for their needs.

Successful applicants to the Industrial Engineering Master of Science program typically have a bachelor's or Master's degree in engineering or science with a minimum GPA of 3.0 in the last 60 credits of their bachelor's program. Strong math skills are helpful. Successful applicants also have a minimum TOEFL of 79, a minimum GRE of 301 (quantitative of 155 and verbal of 146). Letters of recommendation are not required for the program.
