COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING
The Industrial Engineering Department in College of Engineering offers a single major track program “Bachelor of Science in Industrial Engineering" is a branch of engineering which deals with the optimization of complex processes, systems or organizations. Program mainly works to eliminate waste of time, money, materials, man-hours, machine time, energy and other resources that do not generate value. The program duration is five years divided into ten levels (semesters). The first and second levels are considered as preparatory year program prior to core academics in the department. The program has been following NCAAA standards and aspires to get ABET accreditation in near future.
Vision
Achieving leadership in the field of Industrial Engineering in the field of education, scientific research, and rendering community services in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Mission
Build within students a solid foundation in industrial engineering, expands the reasoning, communication, and problem-solving abilities, and prepare graduates who have the motivation and ability for lifelong growth in their professional careers and addresses the evolving needs of industry and society.
Program Educational Objectives (PEOs)
PEO 1: To be able to analyze problems and create innovative industrial engineering designs considering functionality, cost-effectiveness, sustainability, safety, aesthetics, and satisfaction.
PEO 2: To use modern technology and design tools, work individually and in a team effectively, and communicate ideas in written, oral, and graphical form clearly.
PEO 3: To increase their personal knowledge and skills professionally and academically.
PEO 4: To serve ethically as a team member or as a team leader to improve their communities.
The evaluation of Industrial Engineering students is discussed in individual sections below for both incoming freshman and transfer students.
