Industrial and Systems Engineering (ISE) helps you figure out how to do things better. It combines physical and social sciences with engineering principles to improve processes and systems. As a result, industrial engineering is the “people person’s” engineering. Industrial engineers improve quality and productivity while cutting waste like time, materials, money, and energy. This is why many industrial engineers get promoted into management positions. For the same reason, industrial engineering is great for anyone wanting to run their own business.
