    ➢What is Industrial Engineering (IE)?

    ➢Scope & Aim


    AGENDA
    ➢Working Areas
    • Industrial engineering (IE) is the branch of
    engineering that involves figuring out how
    to make or do things better.
    • Industrial engineers are concerned with
    reducing production costs, increasing
    efficiency, improving the quality of
    products and services, ensuring worker
    health and safety, protecting the
    environment and complying with
    government regulations.
    • They "work to eliminate waste of time,
    money, materials, energy and other
    commodities"(the Institute of Industrial
    Engineers).
    • Industrial Engineering is the application
    of techniques and principles to the
    improvement, design, and installation of
    systems that involve people, materials,
    information, energy and equipment to
    provide efficient production of goods
    and services.
    • To evaluate and work with these systems,
    knowledge and skills in the mathematical,
    physical, and social sciences are required.
    • Industrial engineering activities form a
    bridge between management goals and
    operational performance.
    • Industrial engineers are employed in multidisciplinary teams, and are usually
    concerned with the planning, installation, control and improvement of
    production activities.
    • Such activities may include manufacturing, product innovation, provision
    of services, transportation, and organizational information flow.
    • Industrial Engineers may seek employment in organizations such as
    government, manufacturing industry, research and consulting
    institutions, health care units, banks, insurance and utility companies.
    • Industrial Engineers can work in many areas in the industry.
    Some of the possible employment areas include
    • technology management,
    • operations research,
    • systems engineering,
    • optimization,
    • flexible manufacturing systems,
    • planning and control of production and inventory systems,
    • ergonomics,
    • computer applications,
    • process control,
    • multi-objective decision making,
    • machine scheduling,
    • performance evaluation,
    • simulation, service sector, and
    • administrative duties.
    • In the information and technology age, industrial engineers are also
    expected to find many job opportunities in emerging areas such as
    knowledge management, innovation/R&D management, technology
    management, change management, and supply chain management.
    • Corporations as diverse as Coca Cola, UPS, Disney, IBM, Levi Strauss, Nike,
    The Gap, Intel, Microsoft, Motorola, Boeing (to name just a few) all use
    people with IE backgrounds to help manage their businesses.
    • Other industries employing IEs are hospitals, airlines, banks, railroads, and
    social services.
    History of Industrial
    Engineering

    • Samuel Colt, who pioneered the assembly line;


    • Frederick Taylor, who introduced scientific
    management, and time-and-motion study;
    • Harrington Emerson, who described process
    improvement methods in his book, "Twelve
    Principles of Efficiency";
    • Henry Laurence Gantt, who developed the Gantt
    Chart for organizational management;
    • Henry Ford, who implemented the assembly line
    for automobile manufacturing; and
    • Eliyahu M. Goldratt, who developed the Theory of
    Constraints (TOC), which identified the most
    significant limiting factor in a process — the
    "bottleneck" — and ways to improve it until it is
    no longer the constraint.
