Automotive manufacturing companies, hospitals, government agencies and real estate developers alike rely on industrial engineers for the timely creation and delivery of their parts and products. In a production setting, you?ll design and implement systems that effectively coordinate people, machines, materials, energy and other resources to eliminate waste, increase output and ensure quality.?

An organization?s budget and bottom line rest on your ability to examine the big picture, whether that means interpreting raw data or assessing the practices of workers. In state-of-the-art facilities, such as our performance optimization lab, you?ll receive hands-on education in the many human and technological factors at play in a production line. In our computer-aided engineering lab, you?ll learn systems analysis as well as modeling for computer simulation.?

Interdisciplinary research projects acclimate you to working in teams with other skilled engineering professionals. Additional internships in professional settings such as Sikorsky Aircraft, Comcast, Mectronic and the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute prepare you for immediate employment upon graduation in the industry of your interest.
