Program Educational Objectives (PEOs)
In compliance with the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET), the Industrial Engineering Department has developed and maintained a set of Program Educational Objectives and a set of Student Outcomes. The objectives and outcomes were reviewed and modified into its current format. The review process employed feedback attained through surveys of students, alumni and employers to assure the quality of our program and graduates. Following accreditation, subsequent surveys illustrated that the stated objectives describe professional abilities and achievements of IE graduates that are consistent with employers' needs and expectations. The most recent version of the educational objective list of the department was approved by the ABET committee. Department objectives are to produce graduates who have the ability to
PEO1 | Lead efforts in providing effective and
