Master of Science - Industrial and Management Engineering

Industrial and Management Systems Engineers (IMSEs) optimize the ways in which organizations deliver goods and services. They apply mathematical models, engineering problem-solving, human factors and managerial concepts to improve efficiency, create safer and more productive workplaces, and optimize the allocation of scarce resources. The knowledge and skills of an IMSE apply broadly across many sectors of society, including manufacturing, finance, transportation, health care, energy, construction, entertainment, and government.

The Master of Science degree in Industrial and Management Engineering degree may be accomplished under Plan A (thesis required) or Plan B (project or professional paper). Under either plan, a program of study is arranged for each student according to his/her particular goal.
