Industrial Engineering Technical Elective-

Students in industrial engineering select 9 credits of technical electives.  With the undergraduate advisor's approval, upper level technical courses from other departments may be used as technical electives.  Graduate courses having an IE, EM or MNE prefix and courses taken for the BS/MS program are also acceptable, provided that the requirements for taking such courses are met. Select three courses from the following list:

IE 447Legal Aspects of Engineering3
IE 449Industrial Robotics3
IE 453Computer Integrated Manufacturing3
IE 455Robotics and Programmable Logic Controllers3
IE 463Invention and Entrepreneurship3
IE 469Reliability in Engineering Systems3
IE 473Safety Engineering3

Co-op

Two co-op courses taken in sequence replace a technical elective. In industrial engineering,  In Industrial Engineering,  IE 310 Co-op Work Experience I is taken without credit, and IE 411 Co-op Work Experience II is taken for degree credit, with IE 310 Co-op Work Experience I as a prerequisite.

*

Students can take MATH 213 (Calculus III B) instead of MATH 211.

**

Students can take BIOL 200 (Concepts in Biology) instead of CHEM 122.

See the General Education Requirements  “Refer to the General Education Requirements for specific information for GER courses"

This curriculum represents the maximum number of credits per semester for which a student is advised to register.  A full-time credit load is 12 credits.  First-year students are placed in a curriculum that positions them for success which may result in additional time needed to complete curriculum requirements. Continuing students should consult with their academic advisor to determine the appropriate credit load.
