Industrial Engineering

I'm new here. I've written this article. I hope you will like it.Emotion: embarrassed

It comes to minds that the industrial engineering just deals with the industries and factories but that is not correct. It is right that the industrial engineer deals with the industries and factories but not that the only side of this science.

The industrial engineer is part of every successful system. This system might be information system or physical system, existing system or virtual system, mathematical system or theoretical system. Any kind of system is under industrial engineering profession.

Designing, improving, developing, or maintaining these systems are functions for the industrial engineer.

Operations Research, Information Processes, Engineering Statistics, Human Factors Engineering, and Engineering Management are areas of Industrial engineering science.

actually, from my point of view, industrial engineering is awkward. I dont have much knowledge about the situation in other countries but sharing the same curriculum with USA univerisities , it seems to me industrial engineers have knowledge about plenty of areas but not an expert in any of those. Do they?

  • In my university an industrial engineer takes lessons from my major , namely computer engineering, from chemical engineering from electric electronical engineering and so on.
  • scrutinizing what you have written above, i keep on thinking so.

thanks for your reply , Janissary..
yes, you are right. so i think the industrial engineer should be in spicific side. So he/she should be an expert in one of the fields of the industrial engineering ( Human factor, Operation Research, Information Systems,.......). Don't you think ,my friend, that being an expert on these fields are useful for today's world ?
If you don't, then you s

To me the answer is more or less "yes".

about operation research , information systems and such computer engineering based lessons are being taught to industrial engineers. but i dont know even in such areas they are experts. i have just started to

hi again

I don't know about the situation in your university but I guess it is the reason for this misunderstanding for industrial engineering.
Janissary, you should know that each industrial engineer should choose a particular field ( from the fields which I've written them before) to study not just studying generally.
secondly, i think every engineer should has a background

Free The industrial engineer is much advanced than just work in computer science field.
actually i cant make such a general comment.i cant say computer engineering is better. you know, it depends on person,interests,working fields,certain opportuntisies at a certain time,and even it depends where you are and so on.

thnks for advices free.
