Industrial Engineering draws upon specialized knowledge and skills in mathematical, physical and social sciences, together with the principles and methods of engineering design and analysis, to design, operate, predict, and evaluate industrial systems.
The usual objective is to obtain an optimal production system, process or procedure.
The BSIE curriculum includes engineering design for the optimization of industrial systems, specification of manufacturing systems, and scientific management of activities and processes. Specialized training is available in the use of modern engineering tools and techniques such as computer based modeling, manufacturing, product-process-system design, and applied probability and statistics.
ABET
The Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) requires that all students graduating from an ABET-accredited program meet certain requirements. Completion of the A.A. degree will not necessarily meet these requirements.
Prospective majors should select courses after consulting an advisor.
Prerequisite Coursework:
Students must complete the following prerequisites required for admission in preparation for the upper division major.
Students are encouraged to complete these in the freshman and sophomore years. All may also apply to other requirements.
MAC X311 (4) Calculus I MAC X312 (4) Calculus II MAC X313 (4-5) Calculus III
MAP X302 (3) Ordinary Differential Equations or MAP X305 (3) Engineering Math I CHM X045, X045L (3,1) General Chemistry I with Lab
PHY X048C (5) General Physics A with Lab PHY X049C (5) General Physics B with Lab
Note: State-wide common prerequisites are always under review. For the most current information and for acceptable alternative courses, visit the “Common Prerequisites Manual.” This is available from the “Student Services” section of http://www.flvc.org.
Requirements for Progression to the Upper-Division Major
To be admitted, students must complete at least 52 hours of credit with an adjusted GPA of 2.0, including at least one-half of the required hours in the Liberal Studies program, including all of Area I and II (English, Math). In addition, the following
requirements must be met:
• A grade of C or better in EGN 1004L (1) First Year Engineering Lab; and a grade of C or better, from any institution attended, in Calculus I, Calculus II, General Chemistry I with Lab, and General Physics I with Lab. A single repeated attempt in only one of these courses is permitted.
Mapping
Mapping is FSU’s academic advising and monitoring system. Academic progress is monitored each Fall and Spring semester to ensure that students are on course to earn their degree in a timely fashion. Transfer students must meet mapping guidelines to be accepted into their majors. You may view the map for this major at www.academic-guide.fsu.edu/.

*Engineering students satisfy the natural science area and mathematics requirements through coursework in the Engineering Core. Students not prepared to begin mathematics with Calculus (MAC 2311) will also need to take prerequisite courses: MAC 1105, 1114, 1140. All students should take the on-campus exemption test (AMP) in mathematics to determine proper placement.
Remarks:
1. A minimum of 45 hours at the 3000 level or above, 30 of which must be taken at this University.
2. Half of the major course semester hours must be completed in residence at this University.
3. The final 30 hours must be completed in residence at this University.
4. Contact department for curriculum update.
