Overview

While some engineers design “things,” industrial engineers are often responsible for designing processes, or for analyzing and improving existing processes. Industrial engineers make things better in any industry—from automobile manufacturing and aerospace, to healthcare, forestry, finance, leisure, and education.

An industrial engineer works to identify and eliminate waste and unnecessary costs, as well as to improve the safety of the worker.

Many of the Industrial Engineering students at Louisiana Tech University are awarded a Six Sigma Green Belt certification (an industry-recognized quality control program that utilizes process-improvement techniques) by achieving a minimum grade of B in our statistics courses.

Industrial engineers work across a number of specialties, including operations research, systems, manufacturing, production, management science, safety or ergonomics.
