Master’s Degree Program in Industrial Engineering (MIE)
- 30 semester hours of graduate courses are required for the MIE degree.
- These requisite degree program hours are in addition to any leveling courses.
- All MIE students must take INDE 6111 (graduate seminar course) at least once during their studies.
Students must choose one of the six concentration areas listed below and complete the required courses for that concentration to fulfill the requirements of the MIE, Non-Thesis program.
- Students are required to take the following two mandatory core courses:
- INDE 6372 - Advanced Linear Optimization
- INDE 6333 - Probability Stat For Engineers
- Students must take three concentration elective courses (9 credit hours) designated for their chosen area of concentration. Each concentration includes a required course (bolded in the course list) that students must select as one of the three electives.
- A minimum of three additional IE elective courses (any INDE courses and up to one IEEM course).
- A maximum of two non-IE elective courses from the “List of Approved non-IE Elective courses”. (Prior approval by the Director of Graduate Program is required for courses not in the list.)
